The Newest Time Waster “Line Rider” Featured in TIME

Now in beta form, the addictive, low-tech time waster was introduced just last month and has quickly amassed a worldwide cult following. Created by a programmer with the screen name ~fsk who claims to be from the small European country of Slovenia, the digital amusement first showed up Sept. 23 on deviantART…

This is somewhat noteworthy to me because I’ve been a member of deviantART since it was created in 2000 and I worked closely with the artists there over that period of time. The link to the TIME article is courtesy deviantART’s Director of Community Development, “Lolly” from his dA journal: http://lolly.deviantart.com/journal/10446606/#journal

Deviously Artistic, Opens

A website “DeviouslyArtistic.com” has been created by deviantART.com co-founder Scott “Jark” Jarkoff and run by Rich (aka deviot), Matt (aka matteo) and a team of others. The thought that brought this website into being was the need for exposure of artwork and artists that are getting lost in the rapidly increasing membership at deviantART.com. On a daily basis, fantastic works of art are going unnoticed, much to the detriment and concern of art appreciators like those who run Deviously Artistic [and keep it breathing with a breathe of fresh art, daily].

Welcome to the “soft launch” of Deviously Artistic. Our goal here is quite simple: feature art and deviants that are located on deviantART.

We have a small, tight-knit group of artists on the Deviously Artistic team that love to browse deviantART aimlessly and always wanted the opportunity to feature art that they believe deserves more exposure. Considering how many submissions there are to deviantART on a daily basis it is well known that a lot of art goes unnoticed. With our simple plan, we intend to change that!

In order to help people stay abreast of the latest features Deviously Artistic offers a number of RSS feeds available for your subscription pleasure. Simply fire up your favorite feed reader, such as Bloglines, FeedDemon or NetNewsWire, or any of the others floating around on the web, and add the feeds that interest you the most. As soon as new features are made by the team you will be notified rather than having to check a “features page” every couple of hours.

We sincerely hope that everyone enjoys the beautiful simplicity of Deviously Artistic. The whole reason for our existence is to feature art and deviants that are located on deviantART without the interruption of a busy site interface or other distracting features.

Enjoy Deviously Artistic for what it really is; a site that is dedicated to the love of art!

As a Team Member of Deviously Artistic, I, Vince (aka attila), bring to it a long history of working with artists and art groups from my days as a member (since Aug. 2000), the Asst. Marketing Director and assorted website administrator at deviantART.com. My love for art, and the art/design community fuel my passion to keep Deviously Artistic fresh, each day, with remarkable works of art from under-exposed artists.
