# About me
I started pencil drawing as a child. Life kind of got in the way. No time for indulging in a favorite activity.Retired, moved to Greece and became inspired anew in this "cradle of creativity".
I like all things creative and have put my hand to many different forms of creation, from woodworking to silversmithing, jewelry and crocheting, but my true passion is painting.
My art comes from the heart.

Hi there,
I see you are new here. Welcome to DA = DeviantArt.
I have some information for you that might come in handy for your start on DA.
For more information on DA heads of state I can point you to a very nice feature here: fav.me/da6xq7u
You can find a FAQ that can help you with some basic questions here: thegalleryofeve.deviantart.com…
There is also a group specialized on helping new users settle in here:
dawelcomewagon.deviantart.com/
Beside that there are many members who volunteer to help new members with their questions. I am one of them. So if you have questions about DA you can ask me. Maybe I can help.
That said I hope you have a very good time here and become a regular visitor.
BTW After 2 weeks on DeviantArt you can start earning free points on dAhub and if you feel lucky you could try dAWishingWell and wish for points and other goodies. This is probably the most valuable tip you will get as a new user. Don't forget.
About Llama's.
If people have a Llama behind their name you can click on it.This way you will give them completely fee a Llama. The probability is high they will give you one back. A great way to get to know people and collect Llama's.

Thank you for the info and the welcome. Two questions.....
why do I want to collect Llamas? and
what are points used for?
As you can tell, I am really new here.

Np....well this really is no status involved with Llamas but each llama you collect or give is an opportunity to make a friend, that's the real point of it.
collecting points is like a DA savings scheme....you can trade art, pictures, llamas for points and even get core membership by collecting and swapping points.
Enjoy your time in DA but beware....it is addcitive!
regards
