In Praise of DA

Wed Apr 15, 2009, 11:03 AM
I have loved deviant art for years for so many reasons.
It`s helped me form new ideas for art and inspired me to try new things.

It`s funny though, that I never truly explored the whole site and all the different types of artisans that are involved in this online community.

Lately I`ve been looking at different metal products, and considering that I am going into my second year as a welding apprentice I have found it more than inspiring. I knew that I wanted to do artistic welding from the get go, but the more I build trailers and farming equipment and weld on pipes and do these big heavy duty projects.. the more I`ve felt further from the happiness I thought welding would bring.

I guess what I`m saying is that Deviant Art has recently given me a glimpse of the light at the end of the tunnel. Or shall I say the electric arc at the end of the pipe? hehe. Or Oxy-Acetylene flame at the end of torch? Okay.. enough puns. Basically, I realize I`m doing all my practice on industrial work, but once I develop my skills I am getting more and more pumped about the future.

It's nothing really.
all i can think is how much better your shirts would be if you ever put any of this on one haha
Hahaha only I can't paint.. Like at all. I wish I could, but all I can do is doodle with a pen. :( I am always amazed that people even like my shit. I guess maybe everyone thinks that way though.

Here's a funny example of how small PEI is.. My roomate is going on a date tonight, and I asked him to show me the girl. Soo he does, and in the picture she's modeling one of your sweaters. How weird is that?

that is ridiculous... i feel the same about my art, well any art, there are so many people that are so good why would you want to spend money on any of it
Yeah.. I hear you. I always give mine away to friends. Some of my best are in the most ridiculous places. "Dizzamn" the naked woman one I keep as my main.. is on the front of my friends binder, being worn and torn everyday. I guess I think art is for more than sitting there and looking pretty.

The clothing concept is cool. There's a pretty limited selection of clothes on this Island.

ya i started painting clothes for friends and family, really easy gifts basically. art should be in motion, unfortunatly i havnt figured out how to paint that yet, so the best i cn do is constatntly paint new stuff, usually overtop of old paintings that way there always changing, i hardly ever call a painting finished because theres always way more i want to do to them
