Welcome to our activity on Mondays - Monday Muses!
It's all about the artists and artworks that inspire you! 
There are many ways someone can be an inspiration. By displaying inspiring community spirit, or providing helpful resources for example. Or maybe you just stumbled over an amazing artwork that simply knocked you off your feet and inspired you to make something of your own right away. No matter what it is, we want you to share it!
Simply pick an artist or deviation you find inspiring in some way, and post them in a comment on this journal. Please also include why you chose that artist or artwork. Your suggestions will be featured next week!
If you want the feature to be a surprise for the deviant(s) you suggested, please leave away the '@' or :dev: when typing the username (and post links to artworks instead of thumbs), that way your Muses won't be notified of your comment here through the mentions system.
Also feel free to post this wonderful stamp the awesome a-neverending made on the profile pages of your Muses once the feature is published:

"KiwiCocktail, SimplySilent, and rainylake are inspirational because they are so kind to the community and remind me that I should be too.
graceeful and Sweetangel823 are my friendship and Art inspirations. They try new things and don't give up on art, and are steadily improving. In terms of friendship, they are always there for me, have advice, kind words, and a shoulder to lean on. They have what I want to have, or hope I already have."

"The beautiful needleworks of AnguisPoetica encourage me to go back to my embroidering!"
"I admit I've only barely just met Sarah here on dA, but her kindness and support was evident from the very start! Not only that, but her amazing artwork is both touching and brilliant all at once. There really is something special about her talent. I love her style, but it is also moving and I suggest that others, who don't know her, go to visit her galleries!"
Here's an example of her many fine works:
