Tell us what defines you as a person.
Hmm...I don't really know! I suppose everything that's happened in my life has helped to define who I am, to make me the person I am today. But I think there's so much more to come, who knows what else there will be that will add to my defininition or what might totally re-define me!

Furthermore, *erezmarom gallery is filled with amazing "jaw dropping" macro photo's.

Tell us what defines you as a person.
Photography defines me. Without it, I would not be the person I am today. I wouldn't have taken as many risks if I had not picked up a camera, and wouldn't have experienced major parts of my life that happened because of my camera.
How did you found out about deviantART and why did you join the community?

ProjectPorkchop Vol200#ProjectPorkchop is all about bringing more exposure to the many talented yet under appreciated artists going unseen on deviantART daily. The artists chosen truly deserve more attention based on low counts of favorites, comments, and watchers, added to their incredible artistic talent.

From the writer's desk
This is the very first edition of "Feature-O-Matic" news+feature series. And I am very excited about it!

As I am not a good writer, I'll try to put more images rather than text in my features.

Who cares to read long journals anyway?

If you have any suggestion to make for a feature feel free to drop a note

to me. (`CypherVisor).

Did you know? This journal skin took me 8hrs to complete, 600+ lines of coding and was one of the most challenging one to make it scalable at any given resolution of screen. (Recommended resolution 1280+)
News

Spotlight Features - Volume 5A news series featuring art selected by me. There will be a wide range of themes and genres covered. In addition, there will be periodic interviews and artist spotlights.
If you like this article, please add it to your favorites to help spread the love for the art and artists within.
Daily Features
On my profile page, I feature a new deviation every day (or two or three). The piece is usually something that caught my eye. Could be an amazing digital painting, a fun stamp, a quick photograph that made me smile, perhaps a piece for a weekly theme, whatever. However, it moved me enough to share it with my visitors. Below is a list of the artists which I featured during April 2012. I am showcasing different pieces from their gallery in the hope of showing them a bit more love. If you would like to see the original piece I featured of each of these artists, please visit t

Welcome to WishingWell Weekly

Hello Dear Members, Watchers, and Visitors,

Happy Reminders & BIG Thank You's

LOTS OF IMPORTANT INFO. to TAKE NOTE OF:

"The Noms for December":

The Noms: December, The Month of Wishes!The Noms
Get your fill!
The Special in December
December is the month of wishing! 31 Days of Wishing that is! We are also still giving thanks and featuring those great people nearest and dearest to us!
Seniority
:iconlapaa: ~lapaa
~lapaa is just the most amazing girl you could ever meet. Lapaa is very smart, kind, and has a way with words. She's also got her heart in the right place. She's currently taking all commissions she gets and pouring them into two projects. One is a tablet teaching class at her school where she is informing her fellow artists about using tablets and digital art. Informing that even though people use a computer to draw, it's still art. The other is an art book which she is making and donating all the proceeds to Randall Children's Hospital Foundation of Legacy Emanuel Medica

And... PRESENTING Our Group's SPECIAL 31-Day LONG Event!!

Special Event: The 31 Days of Wishes!- COMPLETE!:icongingerbreadlaplzecember is the MONTH OF GIVING!:icongingerbreadlaplz:

:iconlachoirplz:
How it works...
Every single day, `The-Lantiis will get online in the morning, update the wishlists, update the database, and pull from the ENTIRE DATABASE three names. She will submit those names to her team who will verify, starting with the first name drawn, that the accounts are still active and within the rules of our group. ONLY ONE wish will be granted (or none if all the users are in violation of our policies which shouldn't happen since we just did a massive clean-up in November). The two members whose wish was not granted simply get added back into the database for future drawings as though their names were never pulled.
:damphy

To date, we've had NINE days worth of wishes!
Check the groups "Recent Journals" to find them,
and see if any still need help with granting these wishes.

And keep your eyes

OPEN for the next ones, -
there will be one EACH day this month!

After all, YOU can help!

'Tis the Season for GIVING!

Orange RealityMy soul craves to escape reality.
An alternate vision.
A tropical sun set.
Pools of light and life.
Sweet and electric vibes
Of another world.
Of another chance.
Of another choice.
Innocence of the past,
Fading, escaping, fleeting,
haunting.
Chasing innocence.
Chasing dreams.
I am left there
To watch as the sun
Paints a vivid sky.
Silently approaching dusk.
I am left there
To wait for dawn.
Alone in paradise.

An Extra Thank You!

This week, we are giving an EXTRA Thank You to our Members who suggested their friends to "Wonderful Wed." with a work of their own that they suggested!

SleepRaven hair blows
in a nonexistent breeze.
Eyes fill with an
unfamiliar peace.

You're falling into
despair
but you've accepted
fate

Sakura fall from
your illusionary tree.
You silently watch
and reach to them.

This scene is
sad
yet you look
serene

She catches you
and embraces you
in a chill that
drains your will

You succumb,
knowing it's easier
Rest well,
wicked creature.:thumb335864092:

All I want for Christmas ..What do I want for christmas
well it's here in my heart
waiting for me to say the words again,
because I know how much you mean to me.
So all I want for christmas
is the things that make me happy
the things that make me smile,
so all I ask is just to give me one thing.
There is someone special
he's here in my heart
if you bring him too me,
I'm sure we won't fall apart
I could ask for anything
but all I need is one thing
that's my love for you,
so I hope you love me too.
I love you my sweet cookie I hope you come to stay because without you my world fades away. =HalfInane-HalfMental

A learned hand sent a dutiful quill scratching swiftly on a paper's rugged surface. In haste and urgency, the writer looked not at the candle, which threatened to self-exhaust in the frigid air. Nor did this person risk a wandering glance around the quarters, which held no luxury, not even a cot. The pen was not the only sound in the dismal room, for it was joined by the ever-present sound of rats and--tonight--the harsh attack of rain. The many drops that managed to enter the room splished and splashed into puddles on the floor, surely ruining any chance of sleep for the night.

Though new goose bumps from the cold rose on the writer's a

She's just super, so please wish her your best!

A WishI am standing in the middle of a crowded street. My eyes are searching frantically. They roam over every corner, over every face that sweeps past me. My breath is quickening and is shallow. There is a pain in my chest, a pain that cannot be described easily. I wish this crippling feeling in my chest would fade away.

I feel suffocated by the mass of bodies enclosing me. I struggle to free myself. Every person who passes by me does not recognize me, does not see me. I am invisible to them, just like all the others they pass. They push and shove the other non-existing people out of their way. They are alone, just as I am alone. I wish that I wa

I am glad to see one particular photograph here. I suggested it as DD, but never got a response. (As for granting DD wishes, I only can suggest a deviation when I think it deserves a DD or I would spam the DD team with notes ...)
