why i despise the "small artists don't get artwork from m...
3 years ago
okay, ACTUAL journal this time
so... i hate it when artists draw for people that are in the "big artists" group
why? well, because i think if you made art for someone who's already popular, it's pretty much just making art for someone who's most likely not going to see it
and look, i know people are also passionate and draw gifts for people who are popular, but about the people that WANT to get that kind of artwork? what do they get? absolutely nothing.
and i'm talking from expierience here, i'm a small artist myself and i don't understand why they would give attention to some other artist who's ALREADY POPULAR in the first place but not to the people who barely have anyone following them
and i think i hear artists say that we should give attention to small artists, but slow down there buddy! you will only get art from me if you are popular enough for me to be interested in me drawing you
what a great gift man, round of applause

> someone who's most likely not going to see it
The artist themselves may not see it, but their followers may - though that would largely be dependent on the gifted artist sharing it around for their followers to see. I feel like making "gift" art (more like a fan art?) is simply showing their like towards the artist and anyone searching for the artist will also see their fan art too.
