This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The left side has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
Thanks. I'm pretty serious about stuff in a not-so-serious sort of way. Mostly I just love that feeling when your hands hurt so much you're afraid you won't be able to twist the door-knob to get in your place at night after a long day's work.
Actually, they're not that original. Check out francis Bacon's work and then take a look at some Joel Peter Witkins.
I start with a flat red, stab the whole image area with a balled-up rag until it's pretty thin and then do the basic figure really quick. I do this on dry paper. I don't clean off my slab or roller, but I add a little bit of black to the ink and roll up the slab again. I then stab the whole rectangle area of the image with a balled up rag (some solvent will help the ink come off. I just get the rag a little moist like windexing a table) and remove a little bit less of the image. I sometimes use some q-tips for the smaller areas. I then add a little bit more black . . .
I do that until the slab is quite dark, maybe 45 - 100 runs depending on my source of energy. Coffee works great. It sounds like a lot of work, but it is quicker than you think, None of these took longer than a day (it is a lot of work, but, you know, art stuff should be).
I started out doing really cartoony, three-color process images. Just sketching off the tv and trying to get as many colors with yellow, red and blue as I could (the greens are hard). For some of the medium tones I'd lay a piece of newsprint over the area and rub it lightly with my hand to remove most of the ink in a separate run. I did that for a couple weeks then figured-out the above method while laying in bed. You'll get ideas, you'll know the right ones when they come. Follow them.
Other than that, don't fight the process. Let it do what it wants. You're just it's pawn.

Of course, it is very important to be sober when you take an exam. Many worthwhile careers in the street- cleansing, fruit-picking and subway-guitar-playing industries ha
I just wanted to let you know that I featured you and some of your works in a news article.
