Art Share🎨

This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

Seconded. I’d love to own this but there’s absolutely no way I could afford it. It’s beautiful - and I get the starry night vibes too!

I'm not usually into abstract art, but this is hitting me just right, I like it a lot.

Thanks for sharing and good luck.

Good luck! I'm no art critic but there's something really compelling about this for me, both close up and even as a tiny thumbnail. Hope it does well, but either way, be proud!

This is amazing, suggesting so many images without outright portraying them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Wow thank you so much! It's one of my personal favorites and has become pretty emblematic of my art style (with acrylic anyway). It's still for me to use paper as a base layer but I really love the effect.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Stunning! Thanks for sharing it with us, and good luck.

Gorgeous. Sort of feels like it's about light, are you influenced by Turner?

Either way very cool, good luck!!!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Very much about light. But interesting thought about Turner... I hadn't thought about that before. I usually think of contemporary abstract artists first when I think of my influences but Turner's work is so amazing and the only thing I ever do that is remotely representational is landscapes so that actually tracks.

You've given me some great food for thought! Definitely want to revisit some of his stuff and see if it sparks any new ideas! :)
