Journal Entry: Wed Jan 20, 2010, 9:43 AM

.Andanars Musings.


The terrible scenes from Haiti over the past week or so are still shocking – it reminds us I guess how fragile we really are and that despite our cleverness as a species nature can still put us in our place very quickly. If anything good has come of it, I suppose it’s the way that people around the world have rallied to try and help one of the poorest nations on Earth. It makes a pleasant change to see people helping each other rather than killing each other.

The following deviants are donating via their pages to some of the appeals – do give them your support;

=Extac33 - till February 17th, donating 100% of all profits made from prints and 50% from photo shoots to the Haiti Earthquake Appeal.

*neverblue - see journal for FTW charity art book.

*MadPrinceFeanor - see journal for details of the Art For Haiti project, raising money.

`iggygirl - Auctioning a print for Doctor's without Borders.

#depthCORE - art auction.






.Life.


A belated Happy New Year – well it’s the first journal of 2010 so it seems appropriate. I have done very little on the art front for the past few weeks bar a couple of private shoots and the last deviation I submitted, but I do have a wedding to do next year so that’s in the “thinking about stage” as we speak. No pressure at all to get somebody’s most special day right! But it’ll be fun and there are a couple of non dA things in the pipeline that may prove to be interesting and fun.

The lyrical winner this time round was – nobody. Only the second time that’s happened so the space is given over instead to the winners of *blacklavaPRINTS competition “As The Shutter Closes”. The lyric was (of course) Light My Fire by The Doors. Identify the song and artist that gives this journal its title first and as always the next one is yours.
