NEWS:
Hey! Hey! HEY! I found that I'm terrible at routinely signing in on here. Does it sound bad to send submissions to my personal account at :dehereKITTYthere I really want to support this group and watch your guys' ballpoint works flourish, but I can sense that you guys don't want to contribute to such a dead club. I want that to change!


WHAT IS THIS?

This seems to be the beginning of a DA group that will give a home to what everyone else on here calls "scraps." The catch of course is, that we give each piece the respect it deserves--as a real deviation.

We can see the beauty of a sketch done in ballpoint pen--a beautiful tool that makes for emotional, dramatic drawings.

We also understand that sometimes genius occurs when you have nothing but lined paper or graph paper to produce your art upon. You may just like the "doodled in class look."

The addition of the Scraps section is offensive to artists like us. Isn't it snobbish to say that a work of art is no longer a work of art just because it isn't "clean" as this breed of digital artists want it to be? Is lined paper that offensive, despite the true mastery of the pen?

But to limit art is to destroy the very concept of it. That's what is group is meant to stand up against. Go ahead and submit that sketch that would get you a policy violation if you submitted it onto your actual gallery.
