Access DeviantArt Anywhere Using Proxy With DeviantArt
Art breaks boundaries. It connects creators from every corner of the globe. Yet, not everyone can access DeviantArt freely. Regional restrictions block many outside the U.S. from diving into this vibrant community. The good news is that you don’t have to accept that block. Proxies can unlock the door and let you in.
This guide shows you exactly how to use proxies to access DeviantArt, no matter where you are. We’ll walk you through three straightforward methods — on Chrome, Windows, and Android. Let’s get you connected.

Step 1: Log In
Click the new proxy icon on Chrome’s toolbar.
Enter your credentials (email/password or Google login).
Step 2: Pick and Connect Your Proxy
You’ll see your free or paid proxies listed.
Choose one — maybe a U.S. IP if you want full DeviantArt access.
Click “Connect” and your browser traffic will route through that proxy.
Your DeviantArt access just got unlocked.
