Hey guys,

Since im really pushing my Artwork now, i created a page on facebook where you can see Work In progress, and other news that arises!

For me, shifting to reach a different audience on deviantart is pretty difficult but i hope you guys share the love for my stock and for my art!

You can view the page here

There's not much on there because strictly new work is on there only!

but share, like, spread the word to others if you'd like!

BUT only if you like, there's no pressure for you too, who wants to like something that they don't like!

I hope you're all well!

Dan

since being unsuccessful in taking up a permanent role, (because my manager believes my passions lie elsewhere)

I am now focusing on illustrations again.

They may not be everyones cup of tea but my visual language is different and i believe there's a place for it somewhere or another!

I have just been delving more and more into it again lately and now my focus and career path is an entirely creative one.

I still work full time but now i have less pressure to worry about and more time to commit!

I have been working on an editorial series for print which is coming out soon!

i put a lot of hard work and effort into these pieces so i hope they go down well.

More information to come soon!

A man from my hometown approached my nephew on the bus, on the way home from highschool. He started telling him how handsome he he was and then... how he will pleasure him in ways he cannot imagine.

My nephew is the most innocent person out there and one of the most important people in my life.

I am so angry and so sad that he had to go through that, alone.

His friends didn't get the bus that day, they had an afterschool club.

He is shaken up and terrified of getting the bus now. He is in tears.

But he spoke to the police and they have alerted the bus company and he even told them that hes seen the man on the bus before, so they have a time slot to catch him.

To you disgusting piece of shit, you won't get away with this, you won't and you will pay.

You can't even be called a human and your soul..no, you don't have one.

So.

As of current im a Visual Merchandiser for the company H&M.

But this position has been maternity cover. I applied for the permanent position when the lady who i was covering decided not to come back. I was the only one who applied. I have a great interview. But it wasn't enough.

So i was unsuccessful and my position will end in just under 3 months and ill be put back down to sales, this also means a pay cut..

Im looking at this chance to actually follow a career that is 100% me. A career that i will enjoy. A job where i will not worry about going too and a job where i can cope with pressure better.

This is going to be hard. To start from the very bottom..but i have to do it. This is my chance.

Im looking into various fields. Im ready for a challenge.

I just don't know where to start.

I think an internship would be ideal, to get a foot in the door but i'd have to be committed and willing to travel which is a little difficult as i don't drive..

but if thats what it takes to start my career off then so be it.

There is a place for me, i'll find it!

wish me luck!

i feel i'll need it

Hey guys!

Im looking to get involved in some PROJECTS on DA!

If you know of any ones that you think would suit me, i;d love to see and hopefully get involved etc!

over and out!

This way you guys can see my stock to the left a bit easier! it refreshes randomly!

I am doing some more! i promise!

I just get nervous about people watching me through my window haha!

Still playing around with the main page! so bare with me.

---

I ALSO GOT GLASSES.



which cost a lot.. seriously.

These are for functional things like reading, driving (i dont drive) computer work, television etc.

---

DENTIST TOMORROW FOR THR FIRST TIME IN YEARS, I CRY.

----

i hate my job but it pays bills, applying for the permanently job role as mine is only maternity cover at the moment, but got bills to pay! one day ill make it, one day i tell you!

---

Im working on a new illustration print editorial for STYLENOIR , the worlds largest dark style magazine.

My best work to date, so working hard on those!

---

Im hopefully moving this year but it's going to take time to get the flat sorted first!

---

I think that's all, not a very big update haha

but i hope you are all well! sorry for the lack of submissions recently, i'm going to be going through my gallery and sorting it out again too!

Hope you're all well!

MUCH LOVE,

dan!

THANKS YO.

YES.

my little deviantnut squashes..


HOW ARE WE ALL?


x

just because i don't journal too much,

doesnt mean im not active!

im on here everyday!

i have just seen that i have been awarded my third DD, never thought it would happen!



so humble and so greatful!

Thank you ^PirateLotus-Stock

Happy holidays everyone!

heres my terrible version of christmas list for you :')

hope it cheers you up and hurts your ears!

be kind, be merry, be forgiving.

This is the one time of year families come together nowadays.,,

celebrate your loved and lost

and be there for each other.

love to you all!

Im hoping to find more time for my illustration work again..

who knows if i will.

but im going to back to basics with pencils, paints and all those great other tools!

gonna step away from digital for a bit and restrengthen my skills!

looking forward to doing some drawing.

look out for me spamming you with my rubbish!

:')

Today we honour those who fought for us so many years ago.

They're lives cost us freedom.

so remember them and really remember what matters in this world.

We are here because of them.

Thank you.

First of all, I NEED TO FIND SOME NEW JOURNAL CSS, this was is space themed so naturally i had to choose this for this journal. PLEASE let me know if you come across anything!

ok!

I think im out-growing stock..not what it is but just taking stock! I havent really felt the need or urge to shoot stock much lately and i think the time has come to sort of move in a new direction and focus on my other creative ventures which will probably be a waste of time.

I think ill shoot stock by request only now. I simply don't have the time and resources to provide you guys with adequate stock. But it's not like i don't have plenty!

I think people forget i have packs of full body stock, packs of textures, and lots of nature stock etc!






just a few examples of my packs!

but yes! i do have plenty to browse through!

What i'll be focusing on now..

I will be continuing to focus on my photography and illustrations!

www.danheffer.co.uk is my website!

and hopefully applying for a new job role as a visual merchandiser and not as a trainee one which i had to stop because i have now moved in with my amazing partner! and in the near future we will be buying a house so im really excited!

I also need to really focus on my job if i manage to get it somehow..fingers crossed.

I interviewed for this position a while ago at a different store and my interview went really well, i was her best! but i didnt get the job as i had no experience for such a busy store. But she put me at the top of her list if i applied for another role at another store! wish me luck...

I think thats about it,  thank you for all of your support, you know i love you all!

Im still here, you can still request stock if you want too but yes onto other creative ventures which i shall still be sharing with you guys, hope you wont be too disappointed. My artwork doesnt seem to come across very well here but we'll see, ill still share it if i like it personally

let me know how you are doing, i mean it!

My official day was yesterday/ My birthday!

THANKS to everyone for their support of me taking reign for the last year and a bit!

I loved every moment of it!

and thank you all for the birthday wishes!

i had a very relaxful day

so PLEASE, send your dd suggestions to ^Elandria as i cannot feature anymore DD's!

im just waiting for my hat to be officially removed! which will be very soon!

ive enjoyed my time as a cv!

i recommend it to everybody to apply once they are 18 of course!

but when you do apply, read the f.a.qs, read the info! and make sure you feel you are right for the role.

You have to have a calm and positive attitude, be approachable and have a good relationship with your community! and to also be open and willing to new ideas and to take feedback. Also to have a good balance between life outside of DA whilst you volunteer.

The team you will be part of if you are successful is very supportive so you are never alone!

but yes

much love to you!

Hey guys!

It's my birthday on friday!

im doing much as im not well etc!

but on that day i also sadly lose my shiny little ^!

i have LOVED every moment of being a volunteer! it's an experience i'll never forget and hope to repeat!

you can send your dd suggestions to me until friday!

but then send them to ^Elandria after that

we don't know who is going to replace me yet but im sure they will be great and probably more active than i was!

but after im de-hatted ill be focusing more on my photography and illsutration, hopefully fitting some stock in too when i can!

i hope you're all ok!

much love!

Dan x
