Dia dhuit, everyone, and welcome to this week's Artist Connections!


____________


It's time yet again for our Artist's Feature!  In our effort to promote the beauty of creative expression and create a lasting cooperation between MySpace and deviantART, this week's featured artist is MorbidiaMorthel.








A photomanipulator out of Macedonia, MorbidiaMorthel's art focuses on the dark emotional theme.  She pours her heart and soul into her pieces, and by God, it shows!  Participating in clubs and contests around dA, she has shown to be a very talented and dedicated artist.  A member of dA since January 2007, she has produced 78 beautiful pieces and accumulated over 98,000 pageviews.  Today, she has this to say:


"My name is Monika. I'm 19 and I'm from Macedonia. I started doing digital art about 2 years ago. As soon as I discovered DeviantArt I knew I was gonna start doing some kind of digital art. At first photomanipulation seemed to be the easiest type, but later on my artworks evolved by inventing my own techniques and mixing photomanipulation with digital painting. Today people tell me that I have developed my own style which makes me very happy. My art is mainly influenced by the music I listen to and a couple of artists. Some say its gothic, some dark, some even categorize it as fantasy. I do hope you'll find it useful as a source of inspiration."



( "...Why...")


( "...Forever.." )



( "...Temptation..." )


We have chosen these three pieces to share with you, but do not feel limited by them.  Click on the pictures to go to their dA page and see them in full view, or check out MorbidiaMorthel's dA gallery and choose another piece to inspire you!  Her art is your muse today.  Have fun! ..

Ok, I have one already...One I wrote about a year ago



It is titled "Crawl"

Tripping on my own thoughts

Your conscience eats at me again

Stripping away my own fears

I hope you embrace my pain



Crawl to me

with

understanding eyes



How is it, I'm more

than what you want

but a lot less

than what you expect...



Don't crush me

with your constant state

of need



Leave ME Alone

Go cry to your porceline girlfriends

The deamons will conceal

Your bittersweet salvation

How to live my life

with these deamons

as my only

FRIENDS..

Excellent commentary on a needful relationship. The friends that devour, if you let them. Well said, Brian.

Funny thing about this is I didn't like it when I first wrote it.
Several months later I revisited it and broke it up into how you see it now and it made a lot more sense! Thanks!!

Out of Darkness



Luminous
irridescent strains
known only by
the angel of death
yielding to the blackness
of night.

The dark reigns.


Until bathed in the moonglow
the dark shades of midnight
assuming their stance,
resuming their slow yet steady march
toward the break of day.

The night giving way
to Dawn
whose stirring overtakes
the darkness
to play her sweet song
of Day.

I really enjoyed this at your place and here. It is a reflection of night reaching it's long fingers into the mind longing for the new dawn of light to fill you once again. That is how I preceived the flow of words. Excellent as always Barbara.
