UPDATE on Hope: Well let's see... Last Year UNF (University Of North Florida) build a statue of Gandhi and created a memorial for him which I think is TOTALLY awesome. Anyways, I found this contest where a High School/College Student can write an essay talking about how his teachings and messages affected society. Well, because I am part of society I did my essay in the form of a reflective one, but I really like how it turned out. The deadline was yesterday, but if I make I, II, or III place I get to go to UNF and read it out loud to the students and guests there. That would be totally the greatest day of my life.

I prob. won't win, but still I'm very proud of myself that I entered and gave it a shot. Wish me luck!


oh and BTW:


Taken from because I can.


The first five people who reply to this journal get put up here, along with three of my favorite deviations by them.

The catch is: You have to put this in your journal as well, so no cheating. When you make your entry to have to have at least 5 places.

So come out, let other people know who you be:

I can see why she put this as her featured deviation! Wonderful colors angle!
[link]
I love this little mini comic, it made me giggle, and she draws people with no eyes so well!
[link]
I dunno, I think I have a thing for black and white drawings such as this. The designs throughout it are so cool and just the expression as well.

My new favorite from her gallery, so emotional and the details on the face and skin tone just blow me away!
[link]
Request she did for somebody, I love how she'll put in such hard great work for somebody else's character, simple and not overly done, it's way cute!
[link]
The background chosen for this pic makes it fit so well, like a face peering from a wall. Speed painting, she is so talented for doing so much in such little time!

Once again I am a huge fan ofblack and white drawings, but there is so much detail in this Axel, loving the smirk there too!!
[link]
So aside from being a wondeful artist, she can sew and make amazing things for costumes, such a variety, she got Vivi's hat down to a T!
[link]
This is such a magical peaceful feeling piece of art. Makes me want to just drift off.

He breaks down everything for you to understand. He makes sure to put in every last detail for all the weapons he draws or makes up, always amazing and a treat!
[link]
He says he is awful at color, but he isn't. Always focuses what things would really look like if we saw them, but still adds a cartoony feel.
[link]
Throughout his gallery you'll come across the occasional weird but funny art/comic. It's good to know he has a sense of humor.

Yes lots of nudeness, but thats not the point. His art has matured a lot in the time I've known him, and learning new poses and the human anatomy is wonder and he's gotten great at it!
[link]
Really cool, and different ID. Has a vast amount of different styles of drawing to choose from, and he is pretty good at them all. And the face is too cute here.

Love the colors, stance, and outfit. Reminds me of some super cool video game character or something along the lines of that. =]
