J'ai décidé de me prêter au jeu! Parce qu'après tout, je suis très reconnaissante envers l'existence de ce site/communauté! 
I've decided to give this a go! After all, I am deeply grateful for the existence of this website/community! 

Cela fait déjà 5 ans que je suis là... :happybounce: J'ai du découvrir le site via une image sur un blog ou autre, je pense... Et paf, un monde de merveilles s'ouvre à moi!! :D 

I've been here for 5 years now... :happybounce: I think I must've discovered the website through artwork featured on a blog or something... And bam, I stumble upon a wonderful world of art!! :D 

 Be mine by Vyrhelle-VyrL Isra by CristianaLeoneThe Horned Goddess by Lovell-Art

Path of a Dreamer by Chopen Nightingale Gallery Poster by AlixBranwyn Amplification by SerenaVerdeArt Three Raptors by Culpeo-Fox

Au début, je pense que j'ai surtout été attirée par les images noires/mélancoliques/gothiques, parce qu'à cette époque j'étais en dépression, et ce genre de représentations me parlaient de manière profonde. Elles me parlent toujours, mais heureusement j'arrive aussi à apprécier/adorer les choses plus lumineuses! :love: 

At first, I think I was mostly attracted to dark/melancholy/gothic pictures, because at the time I was suffering from depression, so I could really relate on a deep level to the symbolism of such images. I can still relate to and appreciate the beauty of darkness, but now I also revel in the beauty of light! :love: 


Introversion by NatasaIlincic A beautiful day by ValentinaKallias 

Et puis il y avait bien évidemment les fan arts!!! :la: 
And then of course there were the fan arts!!! :la: 


 Saphira by TatianaMakeeva Robert Carlyle / Gold by GreyDragonne Commission- Daenerys and the rose by Bea-Gonzalez

Mais je ne suis devenue réellement active sur Deviantart que lorsque j'ai commencé à développer mes propres projets créatifs: univers inventés, personnages, créatures, histoires en développement,... Et puis, il y a un peu plus d'un an, j'ai passé ma toute première commande de commission, qui a rapidement été suivie par plusieurs autres!! :dummy: 

However, I only became an active member of Deviantart once I started working on my personal projects: created worlds, original characters, original species, stories in development,... Then, a little more than a year ago, I commissioned an artist for the very first time, which lead to a wonderful new addiction!! :dummy:

Nhymue for Lady-woods by Solyane21  Portrait Commission: the Affallon Queen by SerenaVerdeArt  

  Couplesketches: Denys/Nhymue by FidisART  Maelerys and Zora by CristianaLeone

Deviantart et moi, c'est une grande histoire d'amour. Je m'y sens bien, j'y puise des tonnes d'inspiration et de connaissances pour mes propres dessins et créations artistiques. Mais c'est surtout l'aspect humain qui me plaît et me touche: cela m'a permis non seulement d'obtenir des illustrations sublimes de mes personnages, de les rendre vivants, et d'un niveau duquel je suis encore très loin moi-même; mais j'ai aussi pu faire la connaissance, ne serait-ce que virtuelle, de personnes charmantes, gentilles, drôles et créatives comme moi. Pour une personne qui n'a pas de vie sociale, c'est quelque chose de fondamental. Je le clame haut et fort, Facebook peut aller se cacher lol. :dummy: 

Between Deviantart and me, it's essentially a love story. I feel at home here, and I can find tons of inspiration and knowledge which allow me to progress in my own artistic endeavours, especially drawing. But above all else, it is the human side of this website, the community, that appeals to and moves me: not only have I been able to obtain exquisite artwork of my original characters, to see them brought to life, and of a skill level I can only hope to attain one day; but I have also been able to meet, if only virtually, wonderful, kind, funny, creative people like me. For someone who doesn't have much of a social life at all, this is fundamental. I declare it loud and clear: Facebook can suck it lol. :dummy:
