DailyDeviants is a project that features deviants every day of the week. Here are the top features from the months of August and September!
We are very sorry for the delay in the article but hope that you can get past that and enjoy the art!
AUGUST
Traditional Selection
nospatriamfugimus
The paintings in nospatriamfugimus 's gallery are luscious, deep, and have a kind of dark atmosphere that draws the viewer in.
AshleighPopplewell 's Feature
Digital Selection
RoadioArts
My Impression about RoadioArts 's gallery is "a breath taking space" he doesn't have a long while in deviant but has become in my opinion an amazing digital artist, his ideas and compositions are addictive, he has an amazing use of the space he works with, which makes his work easy to read, and easy to interpretate.

For the month of August, I have found kurdtS, he has blown me away with his marvelous photography. kurdtS is a grand photographer, giving us a intimate look through his eyes and lens. Let's hope he will continue sharing his work with us. Check him out today!

nubui has something for everyone in his wonderful gallery from great landscapes to abstract to portraits and even some conceptual. It is really well worth your time to take a look!

Amberlouie
Tea, Anyone?
A withering elderly lady drags the quintessential flap-topped grocery trolley into the dimly lit underpass. Her hair is a tangle of combs, an electric frizz fallen prey to old age, now sits static and snow-white. Muttering quietly, she stops as she sets eyes on the musician, beating his bongo drums. The skin around her eyes gathers crows-feet and for a second her eyes seem to brighten, wide and beautiful with recognition. She moves closer and begins to speak.
My Grandpop used to say that an’ I never knew him to be poetical. I mean…he was no Shakespeare or nothin’, but he were somethin’ with his greased up fingers from all
LinesIt is only when I am elbow deep in the foamy dishwater that I am reminded of how I was never really good at swimming. Through the panelled window I glimpse the lake, the moon duets in both the sky and in the silky reflection. The sink is full of filmy soap and it coats my arms and the bubbles bunch and cling to my skin as I clean plates and saucers.
Father’s voice echoes through the hallway; the baby is crying again. I imagine Madeline's tears curving across cheeks and down the baby fat around her chin. My Father is singing that same bronchial lullaby; the one he’s had since Mother died. Father is singing in a sanded sort of way, a:thumb74250279:
Tea, Anyone? | Lines | separation
Amberlouie is a brilliant writer, showing immense knowledge of the rules of writing, as well as the subtle, effective ways to break them and still astound a reader. Her works are captivating; as one reader commented on Lines, "I thought it was a poem in the preview window...then I couldn't stop reading." Give Amber's works a read, you won't be disappointed!

Fairytale-Heart
Madness
I am monochrome in my madness
My manic monologues mimic
the stream of blood passing through my heart
This madness is my occupation
My bread and water, bricks and mortar
It is the fibers and fabrics of this existence
The messed state of my being
I have the texture of insanity on my skin
It is the living epitome.
I am a house built for three
But I live in solitude
Out-living loneliness.
Sundials and Dust Motes
Sundials are sepia
these days
And they tick
Out place

in their thick
iron casing
They stop at sunset
to watch the Gods

with dust motes.
L Uterus Languit
L'Utérus Languit
I yearn for a full belly
Swollen with the promise of love
Rapidly swelling with the blood and sludge
of my fertile being.
I am the maiden sat at the brim of my heritage
Ready to slide into the rich depth of my ancestors
To unravel the secrets stitched into my genes
And to copy them with my needle sharp and my threads clean
I'll tightly tie a knot at the point of the great spillage
An eternal tie at the core of my creation.
I will nurture my bloodline with the gifts of Earth
Suckling upon the heavy breasts of my Mother
My soft, pink creation will mirror my feeding
to absorb the milk of wis

Writing from the heart and keeping your own voice is what makes an artist for me. When I read her works I find both along with delicate feel, walking me through intriguing trails.

RecycledTreasures
:thumb91394715:
Pamela, RecycledTreasures , has four deviations at the time that I write this. Only four - and if I had four slots to fill I wouldn't hesitate to fill each one of them. It's one thing to recycle materials; that is of course trendy these days, not to mention "green." But read her comments, and you'll know that she's putting buckets of thought into how these pieces work together. Let's keep her at DA by congratulating her on this feature!

SEPTEMBER
Traditional Selection
Piombo
Mature Content

Mature Content
The Shibaritai Trilogy by Piombo is provocative, unsettling, and beautifully crafted. The detail and handling of materials is drool-worthy.

Digital Selection
Lady-Symphonia
:thumb98138670: :thumb98124590: :thumb95054636:
I remember seeing the first works of Lady-Symphonia , they intantly caught my attention, it is not difficult to see when a new artist what it takes to become an amazing and integral artist with their own mediums to reach the fullest of their potential, she has given to us an amazing visual delight, she makes use of the visual balanced perfectly by guiding our eyes specifically where they need to be guided, so it is a pleasure to share with you this new Digital Artist.

draw their breath white
lines Crossing the calm
we measure distances In lungs
shaped like a plane spread
against same ozone
these years To last for miles

to breathe in love

old sickle
where the moon reflects
a blade in autumn's early

myloveliestsequence refers to his writing as "small words", and one can see why, given the brevity of his poems. However, he says and depicts so much in those small words of his that as a reader, one is blown away, then dragged back in. I've read each of the poems I'm choosing to feature more than a few times each, and every time I read, I feel obligated to read it again, just because of the beauty of them. Definitely give his works a read.

flutterings.deviantart.com/art… "> Breaking Up | Pushing Up Daisies | Sweetie Todd
Ever since I first read Kathryn’s poems I fell in love with her daring spirit, extraordinary metaphors and uniqueness. Sincerity and emotion are the key elements of being a great poet.

RosetteCullen
Stoically Stitched 16 | The Change | Stoically Stitched 17
I've never been particuarly fond of fan fiction, but I cannot deny the talent of some of the deviants on DA. RosetteCullen is one of the only artists that I read religiously. Everything she posts has the same gripping, addictive, high quality. I read her literature before I read the Twilight series (by Stephanie Meyer, of which the fan fiction is based), and it inspired me to go and get the original series, which is quite a feat. Not only that but after reading the original series I maintain that love or hate Twilight - with the character names changed RosetteCullen has several bestsellers in the making. I for one cannot wait until her talents turn her to her own original stories - then she will be a force to be reckoned with.

Rlyiii3rd
No matter which angle you choose to gaze from, Rlyiii3rd 's gallery is full of beautiful works of bronze art. His pieces exhibit both poise and character in all of their features and details. With sculpture that display elegant form, balance, and a grace beyond words, this deviant was an easy choice for my Feature of the Month.

PoetryOD In reply to TazzyDee [2008-10-24 10:18:57 +0000 UTC]
No we cant feature ourselves, the team is made up of around 4 people usually.
I was featured by DD about two weeks before I applied for the job, and fell under the time period of the August and September features - so Leo nominated me, and I nominated Rosette
