The Surrealist V"I guess surrealism has a draw for me because it's an unknown world. It's a world of subconscious. Some things you can't really get your hands on very easily. Things that are kind of nebulous and they feel like the're not completely formed. You have to feel your way through that." -- Gotye◄◄◄ If you like this feature please consider giving it a , thanks. ►►► _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

CR Newsletter: November/December 2012An IntroductionHallo, and welcome to the last Abstract & Surreal Photography missive for 2012, written for the bi-monthly Community Relations newsletter. Here you'll find relevant information from the last two months in Abstract & Surreal art, although for this edition it's just the last nineteen days! As this is my first truncated newsletter, the contents are somewhat haphazard: I promise I'll have something more concrete together for the next edition.Instead, I shall formally introduce myself. My name is Darren - although most people call me D - and I'm the new Community Volunteer for Abstract & Surreal photography. I am glad to represent the community here on deviantART, and I hope that the next twelve months are productive for everyone. I will also take this opportunity to formally thank `DpressedSoul for his work in this position over the last year, and for his support since. I hope I can maintain the high standard that he set through
