Abstract & Surreal DDs for NovemberI think we're much smarter than we were.
Everybody knows that abstract art can be art,
and most people know that they may not like it,
even if they understand there's another purpose to it.
(Roy Lichtenstein)
Surrealism is destructive, but it destroys only
what it considers to be shackles limiting our vision.
(Salvador Dalí)

most popular emotes from January 2011Prepare yourself for quite a few Journals in the next days, I noticed that the "way back" function is working again and decided that it isn't too late to feature the most popular Emotes from 2011. :iconsuperw00tplz:
I would have included all months in one Article, but the Article would have been too big then. That's why each month will get their own Article.

"We Miss You" Contest - IIIWhat is this?

"We Miss You" is a yearly contest held by *PutYourBraveFaceOn (:iconPutYourBraveFaceOn

and *Alligatorr (:iconAlligatorr

made for the ones dear to us that passed away. It is a tribute to those who changed our lives in one way or another; it is a message, a way of coping with our loss, of saying thanks and of expressing our deepest feelings through art; it is an unburied or unspoken secret, the song of our hearts, the unseen tear, a piece of our broken soul. It is everything you want it to be, as long as it is related to a dead person or an animal companion. I know that "dead" may seem like a harsh word and we usually try to avoid it, because it hurts too much by making it all too real, but in the past "We Miss You" Contests not all the people got the point otherwise.
