July Commissions CLOSED & A Twitter Issue
3 years ago
General
As always 4 slots available ~ 4/4 taken. CLOSED
I will get back to your messages on Monday, July 4th, so I can keep the workflow with the art up today and because weekend is getting a bit close (this will only be the case in instance like this).
---
In other news, I don't know when to squeeze it in otherwise, I was recently thinking of something.
There are probably already like... 50 people ready to tell me that I am categorically wrong on all levels and just forget about this, but hear me out please.
So there is actually quite a number of people I found on twitter who make art I find enjoyable for one reason or another. Usually it's very nice linework, or just very appealing images in general.
However a good number of these seem to use twitter ONLY, with no link to any other gallery. Some of them don't even have a patreon or something alike linked.
The issue I have is: Twitter is absolutely horrendous for artwork. I am one of those relics who mostly likes to see what other people draw and paint and Twitter... must say it, is very disincentivising for checking out peoples work. I am just not all that interested in memes, shitposting, foodporn, random findings, politics, etc. you know the typical list.
If I want to go into what someone actually drew, I have to infinitely scroll through all these -for me, an interested viewer- meaningless and irrelevant things. Then twitter might have a hiccup and jumps right back to the top. It's tedious.
All I am asking for is that IF you happen to be an artist who uses twitter like that, PLEASE just have one place linked in the bio that is dedicated to your art only. I am not even asking for tags, names, numbers, doesn't matter, no need to bother much with that. Just a place where we can see what you've been working on!

And as I still have to engage with the massive catch-up game, there are plenty chances to put everything you want in line
Generally I think it's just a better experience to spread out a bit so people who are interested in what you do always have an option to find and follow.
But yeah, Twitter is my main and most of my public art is there, but I'm doing my best to post everything on my alts without using those posting tools that makes it easier, feels very lifeless doing that to my viewers.
