Daily Deviation

1 min read
My deviation "Home for the Elderly" nxxos.deviantart.com/art/Home-… having been featured as a DD yesterday makes me speechless (as you can see from this short journal entry XD). Thanks to everyone who faved and commented on the photo so far and special thanks to billwoodford for suggesting and Timothy-Sim for choosing it as a DD. I'm glad I could move some hearts and maybe even change some minds...

The main credit, however, goes to the amazing people at Shadowness www.shadowness.com because they're the ones giving me inspiration and making me grow as an artist :)
