It's been so long ago so I'd thought I'd say hello and make a little update of where I am in life, art and everything. :wave: It's been a really silent year. Silent yet curiously busy. As you might know I got fed up with being unemployed last year - having been unemployed for nearly 1,5 years already - and applied to vocational university for a short but really intensive re-education. I finished my last painting (I dream of nature) just in time for the first semester/term and from then on studies were an ever rolling stone in a permanent state of downhill. Studies requires a lot of brain-power, a lot of time and a lot of sitting down. Art is ecactly the same. But only one of these leads to a decent job with a steady montly income. There had to be a brutal choice. :cries: A little demonstration if you don't mind. One school year is 40 weeks long, with 2 weeks off roughly in the middle during Christmas/New Year. Completed and ongoing courses includes (with various pace and

The end is nigh! The end of the list that is.... ;) @AnnaFromTheTrain Meet Anna from Georgia. She is both a book illustrator and art teacher. She works in both watercolour and digital and gets inspiration from nature and people. There are lots of colourful gems in her galllery. @Seanash101 from South Africa also likes the traditional mediums, like pencil, but isn't a stranger to digital as well. @NikaLorrraine from the US is the next traditional artist on the list, who likes to combine the grey of pencil with a little colour. Check it out. @Eldr-Fire from UK draws a lot of inspiration from history, myth and legend into her artworks, which is a colourful display of just the same. Also expect a fair amount of fan-art. And here at the end, a mention of @Darkhorseman81, @tatamack, @MavroTheMaverick, @velardezcecilia, @AliEmreDogan and @BlueRose000 who doesn't upload much of their own but are watchers on my list. And that's it, folks. That's the list

Hello friends! :wave: Sorry about the sudden absence of feature last week. It's been a lot lately with life in general. I've just completed 5 weeks of practial placement as a part of my current re-education to become a medical secretary. That's 5 weeks of daily total "brain-porrige" of exhaustion. :giggle: Still so much left to learn. 1 year almost done and 1 year to go before I've finished. Onward to the new selection of deviations from my watchers. @Emyii-90 from the UK is a big fan of the natural world. Among other places, she likes to visit the zoo and capture its residents on camera. She also finds inspiration at home and while traveling. @vagabond-mm Although this artist also likes to travel and capture nature on camera, it's the first time in a long while I get to present a photo manipulator! This artist's themes ranges from the comical to thought provoking to beautiful. @DukeNukem4ever2 doesn't have much in his gallery but he likes to write. He's
