Eloquent Art~
A Club to Appreciate Art

~In the works~

Hello everyone,
This is a new club in the works. We hope to build a community of artists dedicated to improving deviantart and art itself through learning and encouraging critiques.
Critiques are not just about flaming people or picking up every 'bad' point but rather about seeing the art in its entirety:- what is good about it, what is bad, what captivated you, what could be improved?
Critiquing is an art in itself, it enables the artist and the person making the point to see how a piece is valued. For the artist it is about self improvement, and for the commentor to see the skills and effort that went into a piece of art.
For the deviant community hopefully it would also improve the quality of art and the reduction of art theft*

* this is a dire problem on dA that often slips through admin cracks and frustrate alot of artists. By improving the general ability of deviants to critique and support one another, we hope to discourage people from merely lifting off images and passing as their own and instead to improve their own artistic merit.
