Artistry at its best, both from the photographer and the maker of all things. To me this picture is the epitomy of nature's perfect im...

I never thought I'd reach that mark one day... But it is true, I have no less than 500 deviations in my gallery! Not all of them great, not all of them highly artistic or technically flawless... but the best thing of it all is that some deviants stopped by and even faved some of them. If what I do brings a smile on someone's face, then I've reached my goal!
Stay tuned for more work soon when I finally scan my early pencil/pen artwork (mostly influenced by US comics)... not to mention the brand new photo work that I'm impatient to produce with my brand new camera!

Glamour model and online friend Luana Lani [link] recently asked me the following question on Formspring.me [link] . I thought it would be nice to share my answer here for all to see. Wish I just had the time to be as creative as I'd love to be, but this is basically what I consider as seven sound steps:

1°) Always try your best but accept you're not perfect and stop at some point of the creative process otherwise you will forever be reworking your creation.

2°) Leave your work to rest for a couple of days or more and go back over it with a fresh eye to see if it's really as great as you thought it was.

3°) Observe life passing by, get inspired by sounds, smells, colors, voices... rather than by the works of other artists. Life and the world around us are the greatest masterpiece of all.

4°) Keep clear from all the lice and leeches, all those who get their kicks out of either criticizing or over-complimenting, and rather seek honest, objective judgement from professionals.

5°) Strive to identify what makes your creative process original, what it is that makes your work unique, original and recognizable, and turn it into your own trademark.

6°) Remember this sound piece of advice from producer Quincy Jones: "Everytime somebody says 'You can't.' I say 'Oh, really?!'' and push the limits that others try to impose upon your creativity.

7°) Although not everyone can claim to be an artist, remember that not every artist is a genius, and remember that fame and fortune may never be part of the package, that's why you've got to do it all for the love of it, first and foremost.

Bonjour Bispro, je suis amoureuse de l'art dans le dossier Renault, mais j'ai aussi vraiment aimé le travail de manipulation des aéronefs ainsi. Certaines des choses dans le dossier est réellement incroyable, pour dire le moins. Je voudrais voir plus d'art comme elle.

hello!
um, you don't know, what's with the Tintin group?:( why is it so inactive?D:

Hi! Well I have a feeling that the girl who started it found some other interest and sort of left.
I was supposed to assist her on the project but I was disappointed by the lack of quality and respect of Hergé's work in many submissions, so I pretty much left too... However it would be easy to get it going again... if there was material worthy of submission. So if you see some nice stuff on dA, please do share, by all means!

I know, right? Most of the Tintin stuff these days are of Mary Sues, Instagramed wallpapers, slash, and terribly spelled fanfictions.

None of this stuff is likely to wind up in TheTintinGroup...

oh, I see. :( that's what I was afraid of.
well, I'm not that kinda admin and I already have groups, but if it would count, I'd be happy to assist in the group, or even accept the submissions...because I know there are some submissions :T
so, anyway, I'd be happy to help to keep the group alive :)

Please feel free to submit as much stuff as you want (if it complies to the rules). As for helping with the group, I am only a helper myself and have no control over the group's administration. I can't even change the welcome page at all!
