Deviant Art Meeting

Story About How InsideMe went to DevArtMeet :devart:

Once upon a time, there was a girl InsideMe, well... she still is :giggle:
She woke up on a beautiful sunny day and was so excited it was the day of DeviantArt meeting. She wore her purple t-shirt (it's important, because I think I look like this smiley face - :giggle:), white Canadian cap and hold a camera in her hands.
She arrived at the subway stop were she was to meet with :iconalexiuss: He arrived in a timely fashion with a huge Russian flag and a big smile that marked the start of the fun day ahead.
They talked on the subway about his art and about his future/past projects. (Did I mention he is so super talented?! He's like DevArt Salvador Dali mixed with photographer talent! )

So InsideMe, and Alexiuss arrived at the HighPark station and...took the wrong way out :giggle: If it wasn't for Alexiuss, InsideMe would most definitely get lost. They went to the entrance of the park...and there was noone there. At first it was confusing, but then fellow lost DevArtists joined them, including :iconstarvingartist: and together they found the way to get to the right place.
Beside the big tree, stood the beautiful woman with DevArt name-tag :iconmoonbeam13: She was nice enough to give the last blank tags to the lost DevArtists and instructed where to go. They followed the direction and went down to the beautiful pond. Now the surprise element: another beautiful woman came up to greet them, and her name tag also stated :iconmoonbeam13: :giggle: Apparently there was several Moonbeams13's, and all of them were very helpful! ( $Moonbeam13 told me it was her family :giggle: - :iconmombeam: :icongimp: :iconbat-girl13: )

Back to the story, InsideMe and Alexiuss joined the huge crowd of Deviants at the centre of which stood...no other then - :iconspyed: :faint: He just started talking about his around-the-world tour experience. Beside InsideMe stood :iconheidi:, she looked concentrated and fiercely beautiful. Then, there were kids and sprinkles :giggle: But it's another story...

The admins separated the huge group of Deviants into sub-groups: Photography, Art, Literature.
InsideMe went with photographers. The leader of the group was - :iconneom: - (thank you `sodalicious for telling me the name) The fellow photographers started to introduce themselves. There were :iconrickyruffle: :icon7x5: :iconamosis55: :iconjuwa: :iconelemental-sight: :iconrebelx: :iconjustmango: :iconmintyfreak: :iconkyle-mistry: :iconjpui: :iconcozycomfycouch: and :iconorrr: to name the few. (If you were there, let me know :forgiveme:)
When :iconorrr: was introducing herself and mentioned her name, something clicked InsideMe and she was not patient by interrupting Orrr with the question: “Where are you from?” To no surprise, it was from the same country InsideMe was. Right from that point, they were unseparated and friendship grew by every minute. At her introduction, InsideMe wanted to say a lot. But only said something like: “Hi, I’m InsideMe, I like conceptual portraits and expressive editorial works”. Everyone smiled :)
Then all photographers set down and were able to ask questions/make comments to Moonbeam13.
There was one girl who made a lot of good suggestions. Another girl was nice enough to share candies with everyone, and another nice guy gave cookies to everyone - :iconneo-the-foxycoon:. That was very sweet :p (let me know your names!)

At that point, =alexiuss came back from Artistic group, and joined Insideme and ~orrr . And then $spyed appeared right in front of InsideMe’s face. (Did I mention he was very friendly, down-to-earth and such a great spokesperson?!) A small group set down with $spyed to hear about new features coming to DeviantArt, but it’s TOP SECRET, and if you missed it, you’ll have to wait when they arrive :giggle:

InsideMe listened carefully to Top Secret :iconspyed: informed them and occasionally snapped photos of him. She also took some photos of the helpful Toronto’s admin :iconsodalicious:
Then she was interrupted by her friends arrival. Director of online magazine + talented poetess Miss. Darya arrived with talented photographer Ian Sobolev (Miss Darya website: [link]; Ian website: www.500px.com). They didn’t stay long, but their presence made it all more amazing.
When $spyed finished his TOP SECRET meeting, InsideMe and ~orrr run into him to make pictures together. :tighthug: (Did I mention InsideMe was late for the group photo? :cries: please, please somebody draw me up there :forgiveme: ). InsideMe and ~orrr stalked :iconspyed: to the point he probably wanted to run away :shrug: But he answered every question InsideMe could come up with. “I like your t-shirt, why are you not selling it?” :giggle: Then $spyed got very surprised that :iconorrr: and InsideMe knew each other for about..half an hour, and not for years :giggle: That’s just shows how easily Deviants can become friends!

InsideMe and ~orrr finally stopped stalking $spyed and let him talk to other people. They went on to photograph rainbow. Yes, rainbow! It was coming and going, making them all wet, and then coming-and-going again. If it’s hard to follow, you just had to see it! :giggle:

While they did that, all the Deviants proceeded to...to the zoo! Yes, unfortunately they couldn’t join them. ~orrr, =alexiuss and InsideMe had to leave to attend short-films competition that night. They went on to explore the Bloor street (Piano Bar, SecondCup, Candies store, BloorCinema). That was an all-around fun time! Alexiuss was nice enough to draw Orrr and InsideMe in a matter of minutes. Not to mention InsideMe created a couple of master pieces herself. :giggle: Short films competition was very interesting, if anyone wants to participate next year, check out the website: [link]

On the way home, at midnight, they found a music store, with old cassettes, and new cd’s, which was fascinating. InsideMe even put on the alarm inside the whole store, when she touched the door with *do not touch* sign :shrug: Alexiuss found there the CD cover that he drew! Which was also fascinating.
At the subway stop, Orrr and Alexiuss were nice enough to ignore their normal way-of-going-home and went on a bus ride with InsideMe and aliens. Yes, aliens, you will see them in the next Alexiuss drawing. :giggle:

Thank you ALL for being there, and making InsideMe all happy and smiley. Thank you :iconspyed: and his team again and again for creating such an incredible website where people not just create and inspire each other, but they also become friends. :)
