Artisan Crafts Feature #2I'm finally recovered from the craziness that was Artisan Crafts week! It was insane, but so awesome at the same time. In case anyone missed it the articles we published can be found here. Also don't forget that the "Try Something New Contest" is still going on until July 29th, contest information is available here. The contest invites you to pick up a new craft you've never tried before and so something with it, the prizes include premium accounts and points :)

Creeping Wednesday #2
It's the second Creeping Wednesday feature! This time, the theme is Ophelia, and you can see here some artworks suggested by awesome deviants under the previous article. Remember, I show here only traditional, relatively not so popular pieces to bring them attention they deserve. The next theme is an Owl and I'd love to see what Owl artworks you can suggest!

Crazy Crafts I: SeanAveryWhile browsing the galleries at deviantART I often find authentic pieces of art that just make my jaw drop and my eyes open up like plates. I'm specially attracted to the unusual, to those people that can take a mundane material to create something out of the ordinary, and see potential where others only see the obvious.  Today I realized that it was time to start sharing them, so that you can all join me in a collective "How is that possible!!" and meet talented artists deserving of more recognition.
This morning I found the work of ~SeanAvery, I don't even remember what was I browsing when this beautiful piece caught my attention. I was immediately drawn by the lovely colors, the fluidity of the feathers and the fact that this sculpture is actually "flying" or hanging.  Before you read it, take a minute to guess what ~SeanAvery used to make this hummingbird.

Did you guess right? I didn't, I didn't realize those a

Creeping Wednesday #1            
From today, every two Wednesdays I'm going to feature several findings from Traditional Art  - with their theme fitting this serie's name, of course. Every feature will have a separate theme on its own - and this one is about the tales collected by Grimm brothers. Also, I'd love to see your suggestions with works to feature next time - and the next feature's theme is Shakespeare's Ophelia!
And what do you think of this journal skin of mine? (:


Dia de los Muertos Artisan Crafts FeatureAs with the Halloween feature I made, I'm a bit late... but I still think that any time is time for good art!
Some of you already know that I'm mexican and proud, and Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a very important tradition for me. While it is also celebrated  in other parts of Latin America I am only familiar with the traditions we have here, so I'm really sorry for not being able to represent everyone :heart: But feel free to leave me a comment with your own traditions, I would love to read about them :)
In case anyone is interested some years ago I published a more or less detailed explanation on ofrendas (offerings) complete with photos. Also, I shall warn you that I consider myself a purist, and while I appreciate everyone's efforts to make art inspired by Dia de los Muertos there's some things that simply don't go with the spirit of this date, and I won't include them in this feature... for exa
