deviantART - where ART meets application!
I’ll let you in on a little secret, I’ve been a loyal fan of deviantART for over 8 years. Given my fickle nature, this is no easy fiat. DeviantArt is a place where I go to escape the world of the norm, where mainstream is despised and individuality is adored. I’ve always been intrigued by the art displayed on deviantART. There is something alluring about art that’s derived from passion, not for commerce. From anime to traditional photography, deviantART provides a plethora of categories in which artists can display their creativity.
When ever I’m in need of inspiration or feel smothered by the cookie-cutter styles of mainstream culture, I can always turn to deviantART to deliver me a breath of fresh air.
Take a peak, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed. Just in case you need a guiding hand, here is my favorite starting point: categories>photography>all>popular>all time
Some of my all time favorites:

some of the art is definitely very creative and I’ve even purchased some of the prints a few years back.
I’ve gone on to more animated surrealism…check out artdorks.com. Interesting showcase of artists and
their works. And for hyper realism, check out this flickr group…flickr.com/groups/highspeed/
