I. Who Are We?
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
The Determined Artists are a group of aspiring artists dedicated to improving their skills and helping others improve in turn.
Our motto is “What matters isn’t your art, what matters is your heart.”
You can't be "not good enough" to the DA; it's a group for improving. Our aren’t great because of the quality of their art, but because of their personality, determination, and drive to learn!
The DA is a very ive and accepting group, as we realise that even the most masterful artists were once beginners. We strive to create a welcoming and comfortable environment for all artists and push them to be the best they can be.

II. Our Story
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
The DA was conceived by our founder, CC, during the very first generation of Undertale Amino. She saw that all of the art squads on UTA only accepted the best-of-the-best, leaving no opportunity for growing artists like herself to find their own community. When the DA’s first recruitment was held on August 23rd of 2016, all of that changed.
The concept of the improving art squad took UTA by storm.Through the combined efforts and determination of all of our amazing , teachers, and leaders, the DA became the largest one of the most well-known squads in the community at that time.
On March 28th of 2019, we were promoted to an Official Squad as a Creative Group.
Overall, we’ve held a total of 26 recruitments and helped over 750 artists of UTA improve their work.
We are currently the oldest and largest art squad on UTA.

III. Our Mission
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
The DA’s mission is to help our improve their art and improve ourselves.
To do that, we strive to give advice and to on their art and provide opportunities for to learn new skills and practice through events and classes. We value not the most famous nor skilled artists in our squad, but those who have had the determination to improve their work.
We also want to exhibit inclusivity and accessibility for all artists of UTA.
Squads were created so that s of UTA could find community with others who share the same interests and ions. They were made by the people, for the people; however, they have seemed to become once again exclusive clubs for the best-of-the-best, nearly unreachable by the average , contrary to the DA’s founding principle.
Squads aren’t about fame, eminence, or achievement. They’re about people coming together for something they love. The DA strives to reflect this original purpose of squads through our open recruitment system. We want the DA to be something easily attainable and -friendly, not something so up there and out of reach. As long as you are determined to improve your art, the DA will welcome you with open arms!
