I have a special gift for you as a token of appreciation for joining this creative community. A free 3-piece art print pack
In today's world, loyalty is more important than likes. Back in 2020, my friend lent me his graphics tablet, hoping that I would pivot from traditional art to digital art. At that time, I had many Instagram followers, but it felt like I was shouting into a void every time I posted my art. I wanted to create art that goes beyond trends and represents the messiness and fallibility of life. However, sharing my art and not receiving any response was agonizing. So, instead of sitting in the shadows of the algorithm, I created a broadcast list of friends with good taste in art and just DM'd them my art weekly with a short story about it. This way, I learned new things about my art that I didn't intend to invoke, and it was beautiful. I don't care if you think my art is amazing or pretty; I want to know how it made you feel.
I believe that true art is created through a two-way communication process with the audience, not just in isolation. The audience inspires me, and I enjoy the process of creating actively with them. So, I decided to create this newsletter to foster this creative connection with you.
Please take the time to complete the survey included below in this newsletter, as your feedback will help me create a more engaging and tailored newsletter for you. If you have any additional thoughts or ideas, please feel free to reach out to me directly.
Finally, you may wonder why I titled this newsletter "Collage." Stay tuned for next week's issue, which will reveal the answer. Same time, same day.
