Now that was unexpected!

Journal Entry: Wed Mar 5, 2008, 11:40 AM
I have 2 accounts on DA. This is my "fun" one for my occasional pumpkin carving hobby. It typically doesn't get much traffic except around Halloween, so I tend to neglect it a little more than my other account. However, I noticed my other account [link] had higher pageviews than normal yesterday and was curious as to what was going on. I decided to look at the daily deviations and about fell out of my chair when I realized that ~Cal-Erstein :iconcal-erstein: suggested Bearded Green Man for a daily deviation that was featured by the awesome Artisan Crafts Gallery Director ^Myana :iconmyana: Everyone likes my carvings when it is in October, but they typically get forgotten for the rest of the year so this was such a pleasant surprise! I was blown away to login and find over 1000 messages waiting for me and my total pageviews TRIPLED! Wow! That's all I can say.

Thank you so much to everyone that has commented and faved. I really appreciate it. I will do my best to get back to everyone that was so nice to take the time to stop by.

I would also like to take the time to tell everyone to stop by and check out ~Cal-Erstein's gallery. She has some amazing drawings. I was particularly impressed with one of her beautiful drawings of an eye.

In addition to gallery director, ^Myana does some kick ass wood working! Check her out too! She deserves some love for all the hard work she does on DA and in her wood shop.

Thanks again ~Cal-Erstein and ^Myana!

Thank you for taking the time to check out both accounts. I'm honored that you found inspiration in them. :)

Actually he would make a great carving for a Thansgiving pumpkin. The high contrast on his feathers, etc. lends itself to a good candidate for carving. That being said, I just thought it was a cool pic and wanted to fave it. :)

Gorgeous pumpkins! Finding your gallery represents a goldmine of inspiration for me.

Your pottery works are also breath-takingly beautiful =)

I have never seen anyone with this kind of talent. To make an actual picture on a pumpkin look the way it does in real life is AMAZING! You've got incredible talent. I'm so impressed!

You're a little bit shy, a little too quiet,
You're the mixed up girl that everybody leaves behind:
A little bit weird, a little too bright.

There's something in the way that she makes believe;
Please be careful, Annie dreams that everyone is dead.
