What's New
What's Hot (Beta): Trending Artwork on deviantART
With the vast amount of artwork on deviantART, it can be easy to miss something, and it's common for artwork to get a spike of traffic long after it was originally submitted. Our new “What’s Hot” browse mode surfaces artwork that’s receiving a recent increase in exposure, regardless of when it was submitted.

I loved getting to know you guys better and I absolutely loved your funny stories. ^w^ I hope everyone enjoyed too!

Now my turn. ;3 The funny thing that happened to me happened during high school around 6 years ago when I was a senior. I was walking through the second main entrance of the school to get to the bus shuttle that goes to the Senior Campus (my school was too small, so seniors had to split their days between the main campus and the senior campus) when I walked right smack into the class doors, almo

Getting to know me questions

What got you into crochet?
I grew up watching my mom and grandma crochet things from doilies to blankets and always wanted to learn, so I eventually did when I was 10 or 11 from my grandma. My mom tried teaching me a little, but it didn't work too well. XD

How long have you been crocheting?
I've been crocheting since I was around 10, shall we say? I didn't get around to crocheting most of my days away till the last year or so. Before that, I only crocheted when I felt like i

Comment/critique themed Art challenge?I have this idea for a while now and I wanted to know what you think about it:
It will be something for the Emoticon community but everybody else is welcome to share their opinion.
My idea:
I will give you 2 themes (or Art prompts), then you can decided if you want to participate or not.
There will be 3 lists (beginner, advanced, mixed) each deviant will get a number and a randomizer will decided who will work "together".
If you decide to take part you will have to pick one theme/art prompt then you will have 1 month (not sure about that yet) to create the piece, after that you send the link of your deviation to your partner.
Then they have some time to write an in-depth comment for the piece (tell them what you like about the piece, what you don't like, what do you think of their colour choice, how well did they incorporate the theme . etc.) Don't just say it's awesome or I like it, that's not the goal of the challenge.
The goal is to create Art and to write in-depth comments and of c

Pioneers of achievement, artists ~RainbowMoonJuice and *Layerth, are finally able to share with you their abstractly designed works of art in final form.

These multi-dimensional works with abstract views won your votes and the final approval of deviantART's esteemed judging panel. Thank you to everyone who contributed and without further ado, enjoy these winning bags! Stop by the deviantART T-Shirts & Gear Shop to check out every angle of these winning messenger bags. Click here to visit the Shop.

Cubist wishes was my first attempt at more abstract art, even more so my first attempt at cubism. Read More.

With this design, I tried to play with the perspectives without losing the concept of cubism. Read more.

All messenger bags feature an adjustable strap, a padded compartment for a laptop or tablet up to 15", a clip to secure the messenger flap down, a top "grab" handle, and two internal pockets for storage.
