Happy Yellow Day everyone

Today, deviantART is five years old and today, we also pay tribute to one of the founders, °jark . This piece is a thank you to him for all of his efforts over the years and for helping to bring together a community of artists that has been absolutely invaluable to me and my work. This is in no way meant to diminish the efforts of all the other great people that have helped along the way, but without this place, I don't know where I would be right now. deviantART gave me a place to share, but it's all of the wonderful people I've met through here that have given me the courage, the inspiration, and the encouragement to keep moving forward. I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again, Thanks

And thank you °jark, for your part in bringing these people together.

Medium: Gouache paint on watercolor canvas.

Note if you are going to comment:
First and formost, you are of course under no obligation to comment on this piece, however, it you do decide to comment, please leave politics at the door. I take no stand on recent events except to say that I am grateful for all °jark has done. If you absolutely must make your thoughts known on this subject, you may leave them in my journal, but I do not feel it is proper to leave them here. This piece is a way for me to say thanks, to cloud it with arguements would undermine that message. These are my wishes and if I find people are unwilling to honor them, I will turn off the comments entirely, but I trust enough in the community spirit to hope that won't be necessary. Thanks in advance
