                <description><![CDATA[ <b>Here are the Featured Deviants and Deviations for June 2006!</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/spotlight-left.gif" width="23" height="22" alt=":spotlight-left:" title="Spotlight" /><b>FEATURED DEVIANTS</b><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/spotlight-right.gif" width="23" height="22" alt=":spotlight-right:" title="Spotlight" /><br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletgreen.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletgreen:" title="Bullet; Green" /><b>Congratulations to:</b>  <a href="http://alptrauma.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/l/alptrauma.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="alptrauma" /></a> - You are an outstanding Deviant in that ... You're indeviduality is unsurpassed even by the pro's, you have a wonderful personality that is reflected in every character you draw.<br />
A sense of humer and the odd are essential to making art stand out in the crowd, and since those two traits make up yourself like milk makes butter, it's easy to tell that you're a star in waiting, I have no doubts you'll go far if you keep at it.<br />
<br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletgreen.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletgreen:" title="Bullet; Green" /><b>Congratulations to:</b>  <a href="http://krakenface.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/r/krakenface.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="krakenface" /></a> - You are an outstanding Deviant in that ... You create a wonderful world of imagination and uniqueness in your art, you provide the community with a sense of the dark combined with the wit to make it wonderful.<br />
<br />
The techniques you use are not only eyecatching but innovative, I hope you never stop being an artist.<br />
<br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletgreen.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletgreen:" title="Bullet; Green" /><b>Congratulations to:</b>  <a href="http://ouijaplayer.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/o/u/ouijaplayer.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="ouijaplayer" /></a> - You are an outstanding Deviant in that ... You always bring a shine to the odd and unusual, even to the dark and macabre you give an air of irony and sarcasm, which is what makes your world so unique and interesting.<br />
<br />
You are an active deviant whose imagination and good personality makes you stand above the crowd, I wish you luck with everything you do.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/spotlight-left.gif" width="23" height="22" alt=":spotlight-left:" title="Spotlight" /><b>FEATURED DEVIATIONS</b><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/spotlight-right.gif" width="23" height="22" alt=":spotlight-right:" title="Spotlight" /><br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletgreen.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletgreen:" title="Bullet; Green" /><b>Congratulations to:</b>  <a href="http://hannubananu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/h/a/hannubananu.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="hannubananu" /></a> - Who's art (<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/30613853/">Sunset Calling</a>) has been featured here for the following reasons.<br />
<br />
Sunset Calling has a basis for a dragon picture that's unusual to see but is told of many times in fiction, the trio of dragons calling the sun to rest, a ritual now showing us all the beauty of the suns many colors, the beauty of the dragon's stances, and the feeling behind the moment.<br />
<br />
A must see for dragon fans!<br />
<br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletgreen.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletgreen:" title="Bullet; Green" /><b>Congratulations to:</b>  <a href="http://hermes52.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/h/e/hermes52.png" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="hermes52" /></a> - Who's art (<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/34551990/">Seth</a>) has been featured here for the following reasons.<br />
<br />
Seth is a perfect blend of the surealist style with a semi-modern era background, it catches me in that it is unusual, unique, well portrayed and, in my opinion, a little like the invisible man, as he is turning away from the spectators of the crowd and trying to shield his face from everyone.<br />
<br />
With a lonely feel and also a small sense of remorse I would recommend this as a favorite to anyone who loves the darker side of life.<br />
<br />
Well done!<br />
<br />

It has been several years that I have had it up and since it began I have graduated to a life too full to be able to give the list (and all of you) the attention deserved.<br /><br />I admire you all so much it grieves me to see this go, as it was one of the projects I loved working on best of all.  <br /><br />So I am asking anyone who has followed and helped this list along if they would be willing to adopt it for the sake of the community it's generated.<br /><br />If so please e-mail me at straga17-da@yahoo.com and I'll send the details to the most active and responsible candidate.  I'd love to see the list continue to grow to amazing proportions even if I'm not the one keeping it.<br /><br />All I ask in return is that the new keeper leaves a small disclaimer giving me credit for the original work, that would make me very happy.<br /><br />So, adieu friends and thank you for your time, your help and all your interest, you know I couldn't have done this without you.  If this list is adopted I will be checking on it when I can just to be with you all again, you have all inspired myself to artistic heights I never would have dreamed of achieving alone.<br /><br />If it is not adopted I will archive it and lock the archive, where you can all continue using it to find the artists already added, but I will no longer add new artists to it.<br /><br />Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.<br /><br /></b></b> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ First off thank you for visiting, I am  always open to comments (good or bad)  on my art, I am willing to meet new  people and try new techniques.<br />
<br />
Lately I have been toiling with alot of  fan based art, (coming soon to this  gallery) which I have come to love, I  work with graphite and ink mostly but  sometimes I will do a random acrylic  painting on whatever (or who ever) I  find laying about lol.<br />
When I first started my art was nothing  any more or less than complete garbage,  and I say that with in the most honest  of tones I can muster, however because  of those of you who have given your  time (and alot of patience) to helping  me find new and better techniques I  have become even more thrilled with my  works and the works of others.<br />
I want to thank each and every one of  you from the people who have devoted  hours of time (and suffered many  questions) to helping me, down to the  people who have honoured my work with  any small comment.<br />
I am truly grateful to you all, and  though I am stilling learning much I  can't wait to pass on my knowledge to  another willing and maybe some day  great artist.<br />
<br />
<o>---*---<o>---*---<o>---*---<o>---*---<o>---*---< o>---*---<o><br />
<br />
I am going to list anyones gallery that  I like here, some will be favorites and  some friends. (but I'm not saying which  is which <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
And don't let them surprise you, just  because I like them doesn't make them  anything like my art lol, but only  because I can't do cool stuff like  these people do! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />

your art is amazing because it look  like everything I've wanted to be able  to draw myself, but for some reason  want and style separated when I started  sketching, I hope to see much more of  your works, as so far every one has  astounded me.<br />
