This feature is dedicated to everybody supporting me in my 30(31) Days challenge,
:bademoticon: 
:bademoticon:
being it through references, encouragements, or comments!
And I'd also like to invite everyone to an Open Feature! 
(I thought maybe it is practical to pack two journals together)Why the 30 Day Challenge?In the last couple of years I loved being quite active on the community level in dA, continuously inspired by the artistry of various people in all sorts of media. I would sometimes spend a fair ammount of time analysing an artwork I just encountered, and not necessarly because it got a DD or it had a lot of comments and faves. I would sometimes feel drawn to very little known artists, and kept wondering "how on Earth did they do that?" even if the image was just a sketch or a "home made" hobbist photo. It was like I always tried to place myself behind the eyes and hands of the person creating that image. If I would find a video with the drawing process, I would find myself trying to do the same movements/strokes over the image, imagining how my drawing would look like.The best present ever!!(I had 0 drawing experience) Needless to say how happy I was when I got a drawing tablett as a present.
Last autumn I had a revelation while creating my first digital drawings. I knew I had to make time to study and draw more. However the ties to various projects in da which needed constant attention kept me delaying this. After 8 months I decided I need to do something to be able to switch off the community activities for a while, which were a good excuse not to deal with the first difficulty encountered while drawingAfter I figured the answer to this question, I understood that I have to place myself under a bit a pressure I can handle, to deliver results at a given time, and win over that perfectionism/fear which did not allow me to finish anything since a long time.
So, here it is, 30 days where I was supposed to publish something every single day. I liked to learn new things with every piece, and I also explored traditional for the first time.
Many thanks for your support 
Special thanks to the people who jumped in commenting and faving right after the publication. A particular role played the first 5, 10/artwork - they managed to really touch me very much, as I was very nervous about the process, and this simply helped me a lot. I got to know some of you very well, and since this was for me the most difficult task to date, in da, you guys really really made an impact on me. Often I was very tired while posting them, and your kindness was priceless! I hope I will manage to return the favour somehow 
The same for the ones which were constantly there, no matter how good or bad the pieces were, it was obvious they want to give me support - I am very grateful for all this! And the feedback from all of you together is very valuable for my learning process
And being featured was both exciting and humbling at the same time It was very helpful, thank you! Here are some awesome collections

You know who you are, I would be happy to see you in the comment section )

AllArtSupport is Super! Come see :)Hello friends,
:iconAllArtSupport: is now a Super Group because its founder MamoruK1N :iconstephanosb: gave me the totality of points to upgrade.
Though these few years have been difficult to those who manage groups and I said I wouldn't upgrade any of my groups, of course I'm happy to be able to organize and use more widgets in AllArtSupport.
So, thank you Stephanos

FEATURING DEVIANTS VIIHi There Guys! All had another good week?
If not, I do wish you a wonderful next week alongside everyone else.
So today, I am going back into my Featuring Deviants! and would like to announce the opening of yesterday's set of journals too, Featuring Commissions.
The journals contain commissions people are trying to spread the word about so others can access them easily. I am doing those every week alongside these journals.
Anyway... Onto the featuring!
I had a thought of trying to do some more... Featuring!
Since personally I feel like I don't write enough personal journals with everyone, I do feel like a lot of artists get pushed away in the shadows or deserve some more love and attention than they currently have, so I've decided to start a 'Featuring' every Sunday or week if I can in general, since personally I do feel like it'll be a good idea to help boost people up and get some more re
Lucy's Favorites Vol. #52Welcome to our weekly feature!
Beautiful work everyone!

None of this would have been possible without the people who encouraged me to persue drawing, starting with chat event hosts 
, like Riemea and JenFruzz. These events were attended with the wish to know what is going on around here, spread the word and bring about a nice atmosphere around the community I am in touch with - I was convinced I cannot draw at all, so this was a very interesting twist of events. One of the reasons I think dA is magic!

One of the reasons I think dA is magic! Along that line I have to mention GeorgeXVII who constantly finds supportive words for me, no matter what I am struggling with at a certain moment. In the lines of people teaching me wonderful things about drawing, I have to mention NoraTrevinoArts(through ACU Academy) Astarsia Inna-Vjuzhanina barananduen fantasio AmBr0 lemgras330 and Rhyn-Art I also found the discussions with TsaoShin pullingcandy and lovelessdevotions very inspiring for my process.

The link I originally had is not active anymore this is why I used this photomanipulation now.
If somebody knows the artist, I would appreciate if you let me know. If in one week I will not find out, I will delete the drawing.

On a funny note, when I first became active in dA, I thought that featuring somebody means to either create a photomanipulation or to use their work as a reference.It takes much longer than putting a journal feature together, but I also get to enjoy their work for a longer period of time!
Hope you also find these artworks inspiring, and maybe find a couple of new faves, or new artists to watch!^^
