Deviation Actions
It's been years since I was first introduced to DA.... ( joined in 2005 as 'livelifetothefull' )
...but now I am suddenly more into it than ever.
It has always been a wonderful source of inspiration, but I never gave back to the community, I was hardly even aware of the community! I definitely didn't upload enough work to call my self a Deviant!
I feel I am now starting to realise that the more you put in to DA the more you get out of it, and I am actively commenting on the work that I feel I have something useful or worthwhile saying about it, or even If I just want to say how much I like it. I also try and get up a shot or two when I feel it is overdue.
To sum things up there are some wonderful people here on DA, and I have only just realised how much time people put into helping each other become the artists we want to be, and producing the sort of work that blows each others socks off!
There is a community on here somewhere that I am ready to be a part of.
Thanks all of you who helped me realise this. You probably have no idea who you are!

Entrepreneur or Artist?
"Hi, I'm an artist" That's something you don't hear me saying in day to day conversation. If you meet me for the first time you'll most likely hear me say that I'm a photographer that also does video and web development and has a time-lapse speciality whilst carrying out commercial work in the fields of advertising, events, music, and more. To sum me up I have always said that I do: People, Music, Advertising.
Now then, that used to be my tagline going back 5 or 6 years when I was printing my first business cards using a certain cheap website whilst shooting on 35mm colour negative film and studying photography at college. I've come a long w
Skimming the Surface
As of late it's been hard to justify spending time submitting work to DA. It's a shame, and one thing that remains firm in my mind is that this is the best online art community (as well as the biggest). Unless of course someone want's to correct me there, and it could be considered a matter of opinion. Anybody? no...? I didn't think so.... So aside from stating the obvious why have I not spent time here?
Although I'm an artist I've been a business man first and foremost recently and getting my business off the ground and marketing my self. Part of that hasn't yet included submitting new work here (or even to other sites such as Flickr).

Journal abuse
I have abused my journal on Deviant art.
I'm just writing this post to refresh things so I can start actually keeping a journal of what is happening on the art side of things. Not to mention what deviousness I get up to.
Right now there is an exciting 2010 ahead of us!
If you're in the North West of England then gimme a shout!!!
If you're not, then shout a little louder so I can hear you!!!
Peace all you deviants, and friends. I hope the cobwebs on this account haven't put you off.. It's got character in here I hope you'll find. Please take a virtual stroll through my gallery of wonders and works and see what you'll find. Maybe there's s

Yeah, I know what you mean. I have been pretty active in commenting, but I haven't really contributed beyond that. This year I hope to do more -- creating and contributing.
