Hope everyone's Labor Day is going awesome! Summer-Lynx here with another issue of Feature O' Friends! This series is aimed at developing and nurturing community spirit by allowing members to suggest a friend to be featured in the next issue. Those who suggest a friend will also have their art featured as well.
How to Feature
Interested? Come on, we'd love to see who you're willing to suggest! But before you do any suggesting, here are some guidelines and steps you should take in order to participate.
- First, think of a friend who you think deserves a feature, and write up to 5 sentences why you think your friend should be featured.
- Choose two deviations from their gallery and paste the thumb codes of them here. Make sure to delete the last : from the thumb code so that it is easier for us to copy and paste.
- Also include the thumb codes of two of your own artworks.
- Submit your suggestion as a comment on this journal, and wait for you and your friend to be featured in the next issue.
While not necessary, feel free to use the form below upon suggesting (in case you feel confused about all of this):I'm suggesting:

LunoYoryikiI am suggesting LunoYoryiki. Not only is his typical art style amazing, he can draw in many different styles and mediums. He likes drawing both fan art, as well as his own original characters, anywhere from anime style, to realistic, to even stylishly deformed for the sake of variety. He isn't very active on Deviantart because his work is unfortunately underrated, and I aim to fix that.

DeiSophiaShe has a way with words; makes it seem so easy to spill thoughts on a page.

MoonpathWalk with me unto the moon,
have no fear, we shall get there soon.
For though we walk but slow; 'tis true,
She rises up to greet us too.
See there her daughters shimmer on the waves
and with their forms our path revealed
Leading us from this earthly grave
to where our souls are celestially sealed.
Domestic Non-violenceThe harsh texture of fabric lies
beneath your palms and mine,
as we sit apart in separate rooms
And the echoing
silence of condemnations
lie peacefully upon our breath
while the scent of aerosol fresh flowers
drift upon the stirring rotation
of a singular ceiling fan

FadingHave you seen my words?
I've searched everywhere.
I know this sounds absurd,
They're neither here nor there.
Have you seen my words?
Without them I am lost.
Please return them hastily,
I care not for the cost.
Have you heard my voice?
I fear I lost it too.
I've been so clumsy lately.
Oh, what am I to do?
Have you heard my voice?
I know not where it went.
I try to make a sound,
But silence supplements.
Have you seen my inner self?
I think she left me too.
Darkness has me surrounded
And I know not what to do.
She's not here to guide me,
She took my voice and words.
I'm alone with my demons
And I cannot be heard.
Have you seen my words?
Have you found my voice?
Please, it's getting darker...
I fear I'll be destroyed ...
Hinami-ChanHinami draws fan art for many different anime. She is very skilled at coloring, and effects.
