Art Dump

@tessw I have also been thinking about this a lot. The things that take off on Tumblr vs Instagram for me are both wildly different, and usually the dumbest/silliest/most mindless pieces. I think, honestly, the general public on social media really only wants soemthing that's easy to consume and spread. So if they have to look at a piece too long, they're less likely to enjoy it and pass it along! MADNESS.
But I like to think of my Tumblr and Instagram audiences as a completely different group of people than art directors and publishers, who usually want depth and complexity. Social media is for junk food art- sketches, doodles, fun and fast and simple. If someone likes your stuff, they'll then go find your portfolio and enjoy the more advanced stuff.
Anyways, that's been my interpretation so far. I think Lee and Jake have both touched on this during some videos, too.

Good work.

@jake-parker ooh! I'm glad I was looking at Chips work
That is very helpful to me too! I tend to have flat pictures and I can see where it might cme from! -
@chip-valecek Love it!
Chip, I like all of these pictures. They are a lot of fun! -
Found a new brush that I love. So I did a few pieces of fan art. I always loved The Princess and the Frog, here is my Dr. Facilier
Then while cleaning I came across a box of post cards "The Art of Disney - The Golden Age 1937 - 1961" So much great reference and inspiration. I plan to do more studies from it. Here is my first. Dumbo...
-
The brush looks like a good one. It creates a nice texture. Looking forward to your Disney studies. Dumbo always makes me cry.
-
Another Disney fanart piece. Did this one between this months prompt on "Fear" and working on a website redesign go live.
-
Had to do a little fan art of Pennywise. I can not wait for IT!! Maybe goes a little with this months prompt of FEAR lol.
-
Why not a sexy frog? Hey how you doin?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING SVS!!

Adding to my dump... I spent my holiday vacation being a chaperone for my oldest kids high school trip to Nashville and then down to Disney World. During the bus ride down when I had some free time I did this piece.
Then on the way home inspired by Disney and all I saw I did this one.

@chip-valecek I actually don't know what Pennywise is but, I like this picture!

A little inspired by Aaron Blaise this past week. I wanted to do sort of a study of his process.
-
I was added to a group on facebook and they have a weekly contest to use a photo and colors to inspire you. Well living in Chicago we got hammered with snow all week. So that inspired me to do this today.
