| Some of you know me as Allison, others stick with Watson. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I don't take myself too seriously, am crude and sarcastic, but that I am also passionate about helping other people to be passionate about something--anything--as long as it motivates you and gets you going. For me, those things are art and music. I have been a traditional artist since I could hold a pencil, but during high school I began to seriously focus on my photography. My senior year of high school, I was given the pleasant surprise of having been submitted to Shutterbug magazine, a mainstream photography magazine, by one of my teachers. This issue was published in July 2004 as a Student Union one-page spread. This motivated me to pursue photography further, and the following spring I had my first (and only!) cafe show where I had works on sale and displayed for 3 months. Since then, I have moved onto college and received a B.A. in Liberal Arts with a focus on Arts in Context (photography and cultural anthropology) in May of 2008. I spent a few years in the wonderful New York City where I continue to pursue my art and music and general zest for all things tattoo despite having moved about an hour and a half outside of the city. I have been involved in deviantART since late 2002 and am excited to have had a chance to give back to the community that has [especially recently] really helped lift my spirits and inspire me to keep on keepin' on, both artistically and personally. For 3 years, I was the Gallery Moderator for the Fetish Portrait photography gallery and Abstract & Surreal photography galleries. I then spent 6 months as an MN@ helping out in the chats. I administrate a group account for artists whose work expresses the effects of illness on their lives and gives an opportunity to spread awareness, called #ItDoesNotHaveMe. I can also be found moderating #photographers and #skinART, among a slew of other channels on dAmn. Cheers! |
