Happy V-day + Featured!

Journal Entry: Sun Feb 12, 2012, 9:57 AM
 

:love: The wonderfully sweet and talented *spring-sky featured me and `Ravenswd in a lovely article showcasing artist couples on deviantART.  We are proud to be included with a group of amazing duos, including *gimp/$Moonbeam13 and =Web5teR/~SnowQueeen.  Do check out the articles, there are a lot of smiles in there.  Also, be sure to check out Hiba's gallery.  She is an amazing emoticonist and traditional artist--and if you aren't watching her, you should be.

Valentine's day deviant couples featureValentine's Day is here! A day to buy love cards, heart-shaped boxes of chocolate, blossoming roses, and even sparkling jewelry. People go shopping to find the means to open warm heart to a loved one or friend. It is sometimes stressful to find the perfect gift for a love one, but most people have forgotten the true importance of Valentine's Day.
The symbol of Valentine's day is not a card, tasty treats, a blossoming rose, or a golden necklace. Its about the expression of human affection to be loved and care. Most of all, it was about sacrifice to offer a heart and love to someone else. Simple words from the heart can shimmer brightly than even the most expensive gem.
In this article ,we tried to express this fact ..
A number of couples from all around DA had pleasantly agreed to share their sweetest memories with us ,and to tell us about what they love in their beloved .
They all had answered the same questions sent to them by me ,and agreed to keep it as a secret till I publish it to

:heart: A quick "hugs and kisses" to everyone reading this.  I hope you have a day filled with lots of love, be it romantic, friendship, or other.  And chocolate.  Hope you get LOTS of chocolate.  I ended up wih a terrible case of the sickies, which includes fever, oozey eyes, and just general feeling like I got run over by a truck.  I have received dozens of lovely valentine Notes and comments which have really made me feel so good.  I want to thank every one of you for them.  I am just feeling like smeg right now, so please know I'll be responding soon, when I feel a bit better.  Also, I may not get around to sending personal Valentines message myself, so, please know I love you all and am so glad I'm part of this wonderful community.

I will leave you with this...



Oh, and for those who rebel against this holiday...

:phew: Vacations are fun, but you have to get back to life.  With a week out, that usually means lots of catch-up.  I assume I'm gonna be swamped at work, so I expect my online time to be spotty for a few days.

:aww: As for dA.  Well, I'm pretty much plugging forward. I have just committed to a "keep going" philosophy which gets me through much of my life.  Friends are gone, bridges burnt, and things done that can't be undone.  BTDT many times before, and I've managed in the past, so I will again.  I'm relativity at peace with it now, and actually managing to feel happy, so I'll just try to keep that spirit.  Perhaps as I jump back into things with both feet, such as my articles and art, it will be easier.  

:nod: That said, I am working to get back on track with my articles.  I have several feature-this polls from a while ago I need to put together into articles.  I still have a backlog, but I'm just gonna take it one piece at a time and plug through it.

:D  AND...I haven't forgotten late birthday gifts and prizes.  I had hoped to get many done over vacation, but technology did not cooperate.  I'm working on them now and hope to begin uploading soon.

:eager: I still have a contest going on over on my Alt account.  Only about 2 weeks left.  There's some great prizes, so check it out.  [link]

:salute: I'm gonna do features next week as I'm still tired from all the driving.  Until then, hope you all have a wonderful week.


:blush:  Okay, I lied.  There is one piece I'm going to feature.  A commission I ordered a while back from *Elengwat came in.  It's such an amazing piece, I want to show it off.  



If you want to know more about the piece and read some of my commentary, you can check out this journal ---> [link]

Awesome commission piece! Happy Belated V-Day! I got lots of chocolates. Bought some for myself with a cute teddy bear attached, sis bought me some and I got to eat left overs from a V-Day bake sale I helped out with.
