The Surrealist XVIII
“Art will remain the most astonishing activity of mankind born out of struggle
between wisdom and madness, between dream and reality in our mind.” ~Magdalena Abakanowicz

> Please introduce yourself, in your own words. What are your interests?
Hello: my name is Pierre Lagarde, AKA *Une-Vache. I'm a consultant in computer systems and data processing in a large company, and a photography and design hobbyist. I love music, singing, talking and laughing with friends and, for all these past years, I loved skating.
> Where did you begin with artistic endeavours? How did you come across Abstraction or Surrealism?
I began a few years ago for fun by making some desktop wallpapers for my friends and I, and also trying some 3D works with the primary software

> Please introduce yourself, in your own words. What are your interests?
I was born into this world around 20 years ago and the name I have had since then is Alexandra. Art is nowadays the driving engine of an otherwise sordid existence, with photography being the focal point of my interests.
> Where did you begin with artistic endeavours? How did you come across Abstraction or Surrealism?
My appetite for artistic endeavours started to grow from the moment I came into posession of my first point-and-shoot camera a few years ago. I see photography as a way of se

> Please introduce yourself, in your own words. What are your interests?
My name is Sam, however I tend to go by ChaosFissure online. I'm currently a junior in college studying Applied Computer Science, with a concentration in video game design. There are a wide variety of things I enjoy doing: digital art, coding, game design, SCUBA diving, and being a roller coaster aficionado (at least in my younger years!) are just scratching the surface of what I like. I also enjoy trying to help out wherever I can; I get great satisfaction if I'm able to help someone learn something new, or share some of

Daily Deviation Report: February 2013Hallo, and welcome to my third Daily Deviation Report. What follows is a comprehensive feature of the Daily Deviations that I featured during the month of February 2013 in the Abstract and Surreal categories. It's difficult to believe that I have been at this for three months already, and that the seasons will be changing for all of us in the near future.
In terms of this collection, all of these images caught my eye in some way; whether it be through technical perfection, compositional intrigue, or the concept within. I am proud to present these works, and I applaud the relevant artists for their dedication and inspiration.

"Buying a Nikon doesn’t make you a photographer. It makes you a Nikon owner."

Firstly, it's hard to believe that this newsletter has been going for a year now! Huge thanks go to all those who regularly contribute their bits and pieces to make it a great edition each time its released. Additionally thank you so much for the feedback last week on the journal skin! Now, onto some Photography bits and pieces... There has been a lot of talk and much rejoicing from many across the community lately as more and more people find themselves publishing books, or co-publishing books. The methods have varied between Etsy and then other more generic and mainstream publishers, but the underlying idea is the same - getting your work out there. So I'm intrigued in finding out how people have gone about this, whether you've had a book published, or you're working on one - in particular Photo books.

Daily Deviation Report: January 2013Hallo, and welcome to my second Daily Deviation Report. What follows is a comprehensive feature of the Daily Deviations that I featured during the month of January 2013 in the Abstract and Surreal categories. Additionally, there also a number of Conceptual works included this month as I helped out during a time when there was no Conceptual CV in place. That, of course, has now been put to rest with the appointment of ~astridle in the role.
In terms of this collection, all of these images caught my eye in some way; whether it be through technical perfection, compositional intrigue, or the concept within. I am proud to present these works, and I applaud the relevant artists for their dedication and inspiration.

> Please introduce yourself, in your own words. What are your interests?
My name is Kinga; I'm 20 years old, and I live in Budapest, Hungary. I take courses at the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, because I would like to pass their next entrance exams in April. Becoming a major in Photography at this university is my biggest dream. I'm interested in art and music, and I live on horror movies and hot coffee.

> Please introduce yourself, in your own words. What are your interests?
Hi, my name’s Matthew Davidson - I go by the moniker Megalithicmatt because I like visiting ancient sites such as stone circles and standing stones. I’m a geochemist, not an artist or designer by trade, so my photographs are taken purely as a hobby, though I have considered becoming a working photographer in the past. Aside from history and archaeology, I enjoy hiking, rock climbing and anything that gets me out into the countryside.
