The first voting phase of Fine Art America's National TV contest has ended.

I got all of my 3 photos through the next phase. I'd like to thank you all for voting, you all really are the best ! Let's just hope some of jury will think my photographies are worthy of appearing on National Television !

Greetings fellow deviants.


Today I am here asking for your assistance.
So, I entered this contest in Fine Art America (even though I'm not from USA ). It's kind of a big contest, they are making a TV commercial and winners of this contest will have the opportunity to have their photographies shown on National Television. I only need 250 votes on each of my 3 photography so I could enter the Juried voting phase.

So, I'm asking you, could you please and go vote for my photographies ? It could greatly boost my confidence levels through these rough times.




Middle Of Nowhere



On The Hunt



Cold, Cold Heart


Just click on these images and click on Vote . You'll be asked to log in with either your Fine Art America account, or Facebook account.

Edit: I got past 250 votes on "Cold, Cold Heart". Thank you everone who voted, it's very much appreciated <3 . But now I just need around 50 votes on the other two deviations, and the deadline's closing D: ....

So, somehow today I stumbled on this blog. Saw many beautiful photographies. Then I saw mine.....


It was slightly changed, made worse. Then, I noticed that a lot of other deviants got their work stolen, like , and .

Now I'm pretty sure that all of those photos in it are stolen. Yet the owner of the blog is claiming them as his or her own (when you right click on the page, it says: "Take your own pictures, and don't steal mine!"). I can't really tell if the owner is a really boyish girl or very girly guy. Dem hipsters, you know?

And the blog also has quite of a following.



So what did I do?

Of course first thing I did was inform some other deviantartists about this fact. Then I did the second most sensible thing. Filled out the Google Copyright Infringement form.

Hopefully they'll respond within a reasonable time-frame and do something.


This is the page with my work: [link]


I encourage everyone if they see their work in this blog, to do something and act now. If it's your work, use the Google copyright form. If you see someone else's work, inform them.


Thank you for your time.

D out.

edit: So I PMd him/her and now it added with grey small font that it's not his/her but mine. That was not there before and it still doesn't change the fact that he/she tried to claim it as theirs before and that every other work is stolen.

edit2: Now most of the works are removed from that post. But still lots and lots and lots of stolen works remain at the blog at large.

So, uhh......yea, the saying is true. Bad luck really does not come alone.

So, first to go was my computer, but I'm not being too sad over that, because there's really no point because it'll be long 'till I get money to fix it, and I still have this slow backup PC. Can't start Photoshop on it, but at least I can browse the net.

And the second to go was one of my favourite things. My ever trusty messenger bag ...
It ripped apart in several places. Now it's totally worthless. But without my messenger bag, I feel.....stupid. I don't have enough pockets to place all my stuff that I carry daily. Wallet, passport, charger, pens, books, camera (this though I didn't carry always). The feeling is totally stupid. And on top of that, I don't have any money to buy a new bag either.




Buy Hey, look! There's still a chance?



Oh yes there is. Over the course of....well...ever since point system was invented, I got myself almost enough points to order the dA messenger bag. Owning that would totally kick-ass. But, I did say. As of writing this journal, I'm short on 1,511 points. That's.....a lot of points. But hopefully, I'll get all those points someday.

Until then, I shall walk weird when outside ...

So, it finally arrived.

My first thousand pageview.


I finally grew from a boy to a real man xD. It's really a good start in a new year.

Looking back in 2008. I must say, that many good and bad things happened. I had some fun times, but not so much as other years. I mean, I think I was more passive in 2008. than ever, in my life. Atleast, I stopped to be so lazy, and hopefully, this year will be more productive for me.
Also, 2008. was filled with TONS of dramalama, both IRL and Online. Breakups, crushes, fights, broken friendships, all that I saw around me, but I must say, none happened to myself, which I am happy for? IDK. Maybe I wanted something drama-like to happen (it's not like there was no drama AT ALL for me, but......).


All in all, in comparison, 2008. was the worst year in my whole life. Other years were much better. The only good thing was the new year party, which was fun, like, really fun. I guess it was fun because 2008. was going away, and maybe this means, that 2009. will be a good year.

Well, lets hope so. Everybody have a great 2009. and good luck ^.^

Life just sometimes grabs you by the balls. And sometimes, it hurts.

Recent happenings doesn’t show up to anything good. There haven’t been a single positive thing in the last half-year.  I quit my job, so I’m now always low on money, I have been to only one party in the last 4 months, and it pretty much sucked, father got fired from his job (along with 15 others), also, he got heart problems and was placed in hospital and he won’t get his much needed operation, since all operations have been cancelled due to economical crisis, my PC broke right in the middle of my WoW subscription time, new router died today, right before the last day of my WoW subscription time, I can get my PC back Monday , but I’ll have no WoW or internet at all (also, they f up, since they didn’t check the HDD, which was dead) , and the worst of all, my mother is likely to get fired sometime soon, probably next year.

Oh, and also, no christmas this year, since we can’t afford to celebrate :/ .

And what good happened in the last 6 months?

Hmm.............. ummmmm.........khem...........

errrr........

In my life I’ve met many kind of people.



I have also met many kind of artists. Artists of diffrent kind and styles. And some time ago, I’ve found the artist in myself. When I was younger, art was something really blurry for me. I saw only one corner of what you would call, a multangular figure.

Now, I have met and am currently sketching on two of those sides. Music and Photography. I feel some kind of a beat in those things. A drum beat of a heartbeat. I really don’t know, but I can really say, that my life has changed since then.

Like I said, I’ve met many artists. Some, who are talented, some who aren’t talented, and then there are artist wannabes. If you know how to draw/paint or play an instrument doesn’t automatically make you an artist. Artists are people, who express themselves throu’ something. In my case, in photography and music. Like, in music, I compose and play as I feel. not as I need or have to. I have my own personal sides added to my music and lyrics. And in the case of photography, I take of photos of what I feel, I add my own persona to those photos. I’ll never, ever will try to imitate or emulate someone other, just because it looks “cute” or “cool”. Even in such simple things as making a banner for my friends blog, I added my own persona to it. It actually doesn’t care, if it looks good or bad to others. It’s what my persona looks like.

Like, my father is an life-long artist, and I can clearly see his persona in his drawings, photos and music. It’s like looking throu’ a lymph.

I remember what one person I know said to me. “There are photos I am ‘artistic’ in and photos I don’t put my ‘artistic side’ into. I say bullshit on this person. If you’re an artist, you should know, that it’s impossible to not to put your persona in something you make. And yes, I clearly know, that this persona is an wannabe.

Also, there are people who have an artist inside, but have little to no talent. Only thing I can recommend to those people are to practice, practice and practice some more. I from the beginning was with little talent too  . But by the time, I gained some skills and knowledge.





And I’m still learning...

This is an epic story about trying to get some justice in this world……..or more like getting back what is yours.

A long time ago, in a galaxy club, far far away…..more like 1 month ago. So, about ~1 month ago my sisters jacket was stolen in a club called “Swamp”. It was kinda expensive jacket, so she decided to play dectective and look up on the thief. And what do you know, she found him O.O . He putted an Ad in biggest internet community here. Excatly 1 month passed between the stealing and the Ad. The thief didn’t know, whom he stole the jacket from, so my sister decided to pretend to be the buyer.

So, here I was, sittin’ and playin’ zombie-mod unknown of nothing, when my sister walked to me, and asked if I can go with her to center to meet the thief. So, I quickly canned zombie-mod to ask my friend, If he could come with me and if possible ask some other guys to come along  . Said and done, he asked around who could come.  Sadly, it was Friday and already 17:00 (5PM), so everyone was in some other places or towns, doing their jobs….of drinking  . So, we were 4 (including my sister), and we drove to the center with the pulic transport.

From the start it was the thief chasing us. Firstly, we told him to meet us at the ex-post office (because it is really silent there, and if a fight would’ve caused…… >:3 ).  But then he told us to meet in from of central station (near). After a while, he sms’d, to meet in front of Hesburger (fastfood “restaraunt”). And after a while……what do you guess, he wants to meet us in front of Circus O.O . Dragging us to an excursion around center, we finally went there and waited. Ofcourse, the tief didn’t know that there were “us”. He only thought it was my sister, so we were unsuspiciously following her. Us 3 were ready for a fight to occur.

But what do you know, there was a woman there. Unsuspiciously waiting, we waited for my sister to confirm that it is her jacket. She gave us the sign, that it is hers, so we walked to the thief. My 2 friends were kinda slow  . We got hold of the jacket, and told her that this jacket is stolen and that stealing is bad  . Some guy approached us and started to shout that he knows nothing, grabed the jacket AND RAN OFF. Man, if he wasn’t fast :/ . Ofcourse, he was her comrade. we started to chase him, but he was too fast. Hehe, two guys seeing a guy running with a jacket and us two chasing him, started to chase that guy too. Good people are on this world too ^.^ .

But sadly none of us caught him. When I got to the first crossing, I lost sight of him. He was gone with the jacket. But, we knew, that They were from newolaine, so we went to the train station and we waited there. We got the thief describet to the ticket conductor, and we searched the train. 2 time finding nothing, we wen’t out to wait there, in case they’re coming.

And this is where it became hellish XD ……. We saw a woman going into the train. She looked really like her. Blaxk hair, very, very similar clother, the same handbag and the same purple bag (really the same) where the thief holded the jacket. So, we went in and confronted her. The station’s police were there soon enought and we went with them. It was not until the questioning that my sister noticed, that this woman wasn’t the thief >_>” . But, man, if they’re lookalikes. But the police we’re forcless (or lazy) and they didn’t even ask us of the photorobot. So, this epic battle ended with an apology and a story to tell grandchildren

So, I've been marinading one particular wordpress domain for more than a year. For all this year, I wanted to start my own personal blog, but nothing came out.

Until recently.

I finally managed to get my first 2 entries in it ^.^ and 4 are in draft state. I feel like there will be atleasy over 9000 entries in draft state unfinished and unpublished.

This won't be your everyday blog. It will have mostly some mildy to really heavy material in it.
