The most positive day in the world

In honor of March 1st, I would love to bring some attention to World Compliment Day

As humans we tend to focus a lot of energy on the negative; on being critical to others, but even to ourselves. 



We tend to see the flaws in everything.
We critique, rather than praise somebody else for their effort. And sometimes this makes us feel rather empty inside. 



I bit there are many of you that have been feeling discouraged about drawing at this point. Who made something, did their very best, but didn't get any response in return. 
How many times have you drawing or written something, uploaded in the hope of sharing it with the world, only to come to the conclusion that hardly somebody responded to it? The truth is that the internet has become busy. Inboxes have become crowded and the time somebody can spend on each individual piece of art has gotten significantly less than it used to be. 



Let's break this habit and make it truly a positive day for you, your friends, and perhaps even some complete strangers.
Go to your inbox, today's newest, the thumbshare forums, or anywhere else on DeviantArt, pick some artworks you like, and leave a comment.




 Tell your idols how much they've inspired you to do stuff.
 Tell people that you've been following what makes their art so likable.
 Tell your friend that life (and art) is a lot more fun with them around
 Tell a random stranger with likable art that you like his stuff.
 Tell a newbie that, even though he might not be expert-level yet, the work shows potential and he will get there eventually
 Feature artworks of artists that you like, that might not get so much attention otherwise



Spread the love  

(Yep, this post is a completely legit excuse to feature some awesome works)

(Also, this is the internet, so have a kitten  )
