Deviation Actions
If you had to describe or portray an aspect of yourself, what would you say?
The theme of this contest is Self-Portraits, which is pretty self-explanatory. They say that a picture is worth one thousand words, but we would like you to sum it up in just six words using you as the subject matter, for what better 'canvas' than your own, after all?
So, if you had to express everything (or as much as) about yourself in just six words, how would you do it? Would you tell us your greatest achievement, something that altered your perspective of life? Would you portray an event that made you happy and full of hope? Or perhaps you would like to go walk the road of transgression to express something you have never revealed before…
Do you feel you can take on this challenge? Read on to find out more!

The power flowed into him, filling his lungs, spreading out in his blood like oxygen, and settling into the marrow of his bones. He felt himself smile in a way that he hadn't since he was a boy learning to cast his first spell. He had devoted decades to the study of magic, but now, now he was magic. A glow lit the trees around him. He couldn't be sure if it was the setting sun, or if the glow came from his own skin. A beetle crawled on the ground nearby, seemingly unconcerned with what it had just witnessed, but yet its movements were in time with his heartbeat. A bird in the sky flapped its wings to the same rhythm. A breeze plucked at his hair and clothes. He began to dance, slowly at first; he followed the wind, and the wind followed him.
