The Opening of the Treehouse Museum - Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so happy to inform you all that the Treehouse museum has chosen its curator: ~eriniel. Eriniel has been a member of deviantart for sometime and has had lots of experience to offer to our Treehouse museum. It is the job of the curator to select artworks and pieces to feature in the Treehouse Museum. The curator can even launch independent contests for the Treehouse Museum and have these artworks showcased. The curator has the freehand on how to organize the Treehouse Museum. You can have your works be featured in the Museum. You can send the curator a note containing a link to your artwork. Unfortunately, only members of the treehouse can have their works featured in the treehouse.

The Treehouse Museum

Collaboration - I have just received note from one of the organizaers of Philippines-IFCA, an international group of Filipino artists around the world. Here's part of that message.

Intro: Philippines-IFCA will be preparing an annual Directory of Filipino Artists and later international ones which will push and support the focus on the Filipino internationally, and also a quarterly magazine.

In the quarterly magazine, there are special features on an artist and his work, but the visual has to be accompanied by text.

The writing: It can accompany a number of visuals from one artist and be a description of the artist and the artist's work, or an interview.

Or, it can be a poetry or prose inspired by the visual, for example, a photograph of a sunset or flower, or even fractal artwork. (okay, just to keep this simple for now, I had to use those examples. )

Objective: The two creative artists are meant to be showcased.

If you're okay with the concept for now or think you can expound more, just note me. The selection of artist for highlight will be those in our Favourites Gallery, you can choose any artist from there.

You're free to appoint any writer to prepare the write-up to the visual. Just let us know who they are, they can be Filipino or other nationalities. What we need is at least one of the creative artist has to be Filipino.


I am therefore inviting you to visit the =philippines site and browse through their gallery. For those who are interested to be part of the writers for this international mag, send me a note. For those Filipino artists who would want their visual arts featured in this international mag, send me a note too or you can visit =philippines.


The success of the Treehouse lies in the active participation of its members and the committment of everyone. Should you have ideas for our treehouse, feel free to send a note entitled SUGGESTIONS


Welcome.

<sub>This is The Tree House Society, founded by ~bayen.

This club aims to gather deviantart members from different backgrounds with different artistic skills all in one club. This is where Poets, Graphic Designers, Writers, Painters, Photographers, Apologists and Opinion-makers assemble to:

- Share their thoughts on different issues.
- Share artworks.
- Share tips on how to improve one's skill through constructive criticisms and encouragement and how to survive the eccentricities of daily living.
- Most importantly, possibly meet new friends in dA while you're at it!

This club also aims to give underrated and excellent artists their deserved exposure through features!

Being a "non-exclusive, exclusive" club, our members hail from the halls of poets, the chambers of painters, the dark rooms of photographers, the arenas of orators and debaters, or the simple sidestreet templegrounds of painters and artists.

Come inside the Tree House and meet fellow artists who may be willing to help you improve in your craft. Members of the Tree House will be very much willing to send you a critique regarding a piece you have just submitted or about to submit in dA. Just send us a NOTE entitled: NEED ADVICE.
