=John44NY lost his wife to cancer, and now he's suffering from the same disease. He would like to have a portrait of his family. More information can be found in:

Request of a Cancer Victim.

If you would like to grant his wish, please do so. It doesn't matter if you think you're not talented enough. This is not a matter of talent, what's important here is to make someone happy. Like $Moonbeam13 said in her journal:

_{"This is an opportunity to reach out to one of our own through art. Use the style you are comfortable with and that will be perfect. I appreciate the desire to want it to be the absolute best, that's all we ever want for people we want to support but in this case, it matters that you cared enough to give it a shot. I assure you that the outpouring of love through the attempt will be worth far more than everyone backing off because they're afraid they aren't good enough, or the style isn't the one desired."}

Hello fellow deviants!

I would like to thank all of you who have shown your support for my project: "That was then, this is now" in one way or another. Also, if you want to help spreading the word, I'd very much thank you. Hmm, I should be making a stamp for this, shouldn't I? Although if someone wants to help me with that, I wouldn't mind.

Remember to send me a note once you're finished if you are participating in the project so I can add both thumbnails to the collection. That would make it easier for me to keep track not only on who's participating, but also for when I have to write the news article at the end of the project on May 2nd.

For those interested in looking at the current entries, I've made a collection in my favourites. You can look at them here: TWTTIN Entries
