Marilyn Monroe Drawing by lemgras330
Artist lemgras330 (Cher Nicole) was kind enough to mention another artist on deviantArt and myself in a recent submission she made.
Lemgras330 and I had exchanged a few notes in private about how to draw Marilyn Monroe. She seemed a little nervous or unsure about drawing Marilyn, but I told her while Marilyn can be a difficult celebrity to draw, if you stick with it, you can do it.
I also gave her a few tips I had picked up after having drawn Marilyn a million times over the years.
Lemgras330 recently finished a portrait of Marilyn Monroe, and she had nothing to worry about, because it came out wonderfully!
It looks just like Marilyn:

Thank you to lemgras330 for mentioning me in her art and for taking the time to make a portrait of Marilyn (one of my all time favorite celebrities!)
Back in College -and dA's Horrible New Site Design
So, it's November 1, 2019.
I logged into my eyeqandy DeviantArt account last night to vote on any art in groups where I am an admin. I was quite surprised to discover that the entire site has undergone a transformation.
I believe that DeviantArt is calling this new design "Eclipse." Well, I hate it.
Most of its features are un-usable - I click on symbols, links, and things, but nothing happens. At first, I assumed it was because I was on my usual (very old) computer that has an ancient OS (Operating System), but no, that's not it.
Today, I am borrowing a newer (lap top) with a newer OS, and four fifths of the features on deviant Art's "Ec
My Deviant Art Friend, Lemgras330, Has Passed Away
August 2019
I was friends with Cher Nicole ("lemgras330") on deviantArt for a few years.
We mainly sent private notes back and forth via DA's messaging system.
I noticed she hadn't contacted me in a long time.
I tried sending her a note today, and after doing that, I checked out her dA home page, where I saw all sorts of condolence notes.
Come to find out, Cher had cancer. She passed away, I believe in July of 2019th.
You can read Yuukon's deviantArt journal entry about Cher's passing here:
In Memoriam: lemgras330
I am saddened to learn of Cher's passing. She was a very considerate, thoughtful person who loved giving words of encourag
My Art Used By El Rey Network
American cable television network El Rey used some of my artwork to promote their Superman movie weekend (Sept 3, 2016) in a commercial that was uploaded to their Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter accounts recently.
You can view that art and the commercials here:

My Computer is Broken - My Art on TV Show
Hello everyone.
As of this morning, my computer stopped working. I don't know why. It was working fine last night.
I have no other way of getting online. I am borrowing someone else's computer to post this message. This is not a computer I can use regularly.
I have no idea if my computer can be fixed at all, or if I can get a new one, or when.
I have no idea how long I will not be able to get on the internet consistently.
This means, so long as I am without a computer, any art sent to groups I moderate will expire.
My art was used by an American cable TV station called "El Rey" to promote their Superman movie weekend (of Sept 3, 2016).
