As the title suggests, this news article's goal is to spread the dA love into everyone's heart! You will find here a little bit of everything, from awesome interviews with talented artists, art features, group promotion to random deviants' features. I hope you will find this informative and entertaining!
Tell us what defines you as a person.I am patient and I do care about things around me. I like to have fun and live the life one step at a time.
How did you found out about deviantART and why did you join the community?I found out about dA around 5 years ago, from a friend, and I wanted to post my works on the web and this was by far the most popular site of them all.
When and how did you discover your passion for art?Around the time I found out about dA, a bit earlier I might say, I was employed in photography domain so I started to enjoy it.
What inspires you the most and when do you think your creativity is at its maximum?Everything is a source of inspiration. There is no max creativity, the limits are only what you can do with the things you have at your disposal.
What do you think you'd be doing if you hadn't chosen this path?I never thought about that, and I don't want to, because is a great passion I have regarding art.
What do you think it's your most meaningful deviation and what makes it special? Does it have a story behind it?Hmm, I think
Bitter Sweet Agony with
WildRainOfIceAndFire is my (let's say) famous work, it was the one that won the most prizes of all my works and the one I am associated with when it comes to me.
Do you have any insecurities regarding your art?Except the fact that is often "stolen" and submitted by others on their sites/pages, nope. (for the moment that's what I think).
Did art ever helped you to deal with your life problems?Well, it got me some income, when I needed, I combined pleasure of doing it with the necessity.
What is the one thing you always wanted to do but never got a chance to?Get some serious gear. Played with some, but can't afford it. Hope I'll be rich someday, lol.
A few words for our fellow artists?Keep practicing. You can't be perfect no matter how hard you try, but you can get better and better, learn new things all the time. And be original. Copy gets you nowhere.

A Gray Eyed GirlA Gray Eyed Girl
Taken away from home, another child sold
Stronger than family: poverty meets gold
Not unsual back then, the circus left
A confused girl, her heart is marked with a cleft
Sleeping on a carpet in a rich household
She cries alone, until wet stains become cold
Darkness came to her side, offering a deal
"Give yourself to me and your wounds I will heal."
Lost in a world she wished to leave, she agreed
Alas! The offer - a lie! There was no good deed
No feelings, no pain. Darkness covered her mind
Showed an exit only painful and unkind.
Her days' colours replaced by black and gray
Hopelessness was about to take her away
But a survivor of a past worse her own
Taught her to live on by the marks his face shown

TonightTonight.
When you laid your head against my shoulder
With your hand on my chest
And closed those beautiful blue eyes
Your slender form embraced by my arms
I felt so proud to be able to call you mine.
At rest, and at peace
Your hair.
Like silken thread in the moon's light.
Your skin.
Like pure, soft snow.
The easy rhythm of your breathing.
Like waves lapping gently at the shore.
The beat of your heart.
Close, clear, comforting.
You stir, and nuzzle contentedly into my neck.
I am powerless to do anything but smile.
Dangerous CharadeThe darkness crawls forward with skeletal hands.
Close your eyes and it won't find you now.
Not one in the crowd tried to understand.
Once again they have abandoned you to drown.
You tried, how you tried to fit their image of perfection.
Smiled while they took yet another piece.
Ignored the mirrors emaciated reflection,
As you hid the pain seething underneath.
You've played their games,
And they left you an empty shell.
The lies have cause your pain,
And created this living hell.
But I don't want you to be their pawn on the board.
Take My life and drink it in.
Slavery is a price you can never afford.
Let the light I bring saturate through your skin.
They see beauty as what the outside looks like.
But don't you know it's not true?
It's what's in your heart that counts in life.
Your strength and love inside is what shines through.
You've played their games,
And they left you an empty shell.
The lies have cause your pain,
And created this living hell.
But I don't want you
HeroThey say you need a lion's heart,
Beating inside your chest,
Or a hero's mind, which knows no fear,
To guide your steps, to push you on.
On towards that fear of yours:
That burning house, those eyes too cold,
That shadow lurking in the darkness
Of the empty factory.
They say you can't gain it,
They tell you: "you don't have it!"
That incredible bravery
that burns inside a hero's soul.
You read of it in books,
You hear of it in tales,
You see it in movies,
That bravery a hero needs.
You heard of those brave knights
Who faced dragons and witches,
Those evil beings created by darkness
And living on fear.
And you wish you were like them.
But, you can't swing a sword
So accurate and precise
That people say it looks like a dance,
A deadly dance of blood and iron.
You can't cast spells
That make a heart stop
In a split second,
And heal just as fast.
You can't fly with just a thought,
You can't lift objects as heavy as a house,
You can't run faster than a car,
Or stretch your body to amazing l
