This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The bottom has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
My name is Jake, I'm 28 years old and I want to be an artist. I don't want to imply that this is the only thing I want to be in life, nor that I might not want something different in the future, but right now that is what I want to put my energy towards.
Art is such a broad term, so let me be more specific. I'm speaking of visual arts: traditional mediums like drawing and painting as well digital art. I am interested in creating single complete works in a wide variety of styles. I am also very interested in sequential art that tells a story (comics that is). My background is not vast, I started drawing only a few years ago, beginning with no experience and gaining what skills I could through a few community college courses. I have a long way to go but that's part of what makes this so exciting.
I believe in the wonder of process and the power of a community. My hope is to use those things to grow as an artist. I hope that my sharing the work I am doing and the progress I am making will generate discussion, critique, advice and collaboration. I hope to avoid simple "like button opinions", I want to know why you like something I do, or why you don't, what I could do to make it better, how it makes you feel, or what it inspires you to create. I want this experience to be as much about you as it is about me.

hey man, saw you visited today. sure has been a while since we chatted about your fine art pencil skills. Always a pleasure to hear from you! Noticed the tat (sweet) Be Well! Maxx
thanks. Yeah I sorta got out of the habit of drawing for a little while and then a month ago I realized I was really missing it. Now It seems to be all I want to do... little rusty from lack of practice but getting back into it.
Thank you for sharing your work... it's nice to be able to see art from people that are at a skill level I'd like to see myself at in years to come... gives me hope and inspiration.
