Invisible artist (notice problems)

[Anonymous No.3562594]

Hello, I'm a painter, I paint on canvas & digital.

I'm having a hard time promoting my art, I see other artists that are not better than me get tons of views, while I get only a few (mostly through facebook links)
I tried opening Fineartamerica to make a few $, but I get, like minimum views, it's almost like I'm shadowbanned, other good/crappy artists have alot of views. like, ALOT more than me.
I'm experienced with tagging since I researched this shit for years. so I dont think its the tagging/title, I dont know what is the problem. Also my art doesn't suck at all, most of the people who actually can rich me on Deviantart, they love my crap
(Deviantart is the best place for free portfolio and its impossible to be shadowbanned there yet) so its easier to get noticed there, compared to FAA and stuff.

Anyway, help meeee! advice!!! tipsss!

Hi, If you dont believe me, what is the point of this then? how can I prove it? if you have a DA account we can chat.

[Anonymous No.3562600]

>>3562598
that wasnt the point of what i said
you didnt said "pic related is my work" or something like that, so i cant just assume that it's your art
but if it is, then alright, it's pretty cool, you can have a public, but DA is way too autistic for you to grab an audience interested in such subjects, imo
perhaps try another art sharing website idk

I don't think it's about believing its more like that anon didn't know if the op pick was yours and was just asking :/

[Anonymous No.3562608]

>>3562594
If that's your work the perspective is le fucked

[Anonymous No.3562613]

>>3562598
If the op pick is yours I would suggest studing more before you look for an audience, it seems like your doing art for money rather than getting good, which wont work unless your very talented, and I'm not saying its shit but since its a large piece that face that your very beginner is shadowed a bit, do more studies then do big pieces.

whatever you say, post your work

comment on other user's works that you honestly like. Try to leave more than just "nice" or "cool colors" as well. Other users will see you as personable and also will click on your name to see your gallery if your comment reflects this personable nature.

I understand that Deviantart is 90% 14 years old genderless lgbtq defenders, like there is a horde of them. but anyway, the only reason I liked DA is that it gets your art "findable" in a google search.
however, it's not as good as it used to be.
But anyway, can you recommend a decent place to try my luck there?

I heard of paigeeworld (or something like that) its not full of retards yet, but it has fewer people, but still, I managed to get about 100 followers there, by just uploading, so its not so bad I guess.

[Anonymous No.3562656]

what's your page on there?

Well, it is my style, Your comment can be addressed to alot of famous/rich artists who can buy your whole family and make them into sexslaves lol, but they don't need it. art is not only about perspective/shadowing or playing smart.

ulterior motives are pretty much the norm. If you are having trouble with visibility on that particular site, it is the only way i can think of to help---short of doing fan art of popular media or having people stumble on you by sheer luck

[Anonymous No.3562670]

>>3562656
I don't even remember the sites name correctly, I think googling it is a good idea.

post more of your work. From just this, i'd say you have a design problem not a skill problem. if the subject is the piano player it needs to be more important, if it's the sky then why have the piano?

>if it's the sky then why have the piano?
I would say, it's both, it is less boring that way,
More shit going on, like the old chinese style, where the painting is full of shit, (I mean full of subjects).

Your stuff is boring and unappealing. You'll either need to sell out or accept that you aren't gonna be extremely popular

Does no one on this forum know how to make a fucking reverse image search?

[Anonymous No.3562735]

>>3562627
No. That's the shit you said you autist.

Stop being retarded and post your actual work. Also you're not shadowbanned or shit like that, you just don't produce interesting art.

nothing wrong with making something more complicated, But the mix is off. 5% of a painting can't be balanced with 95%

you made it hard to understand

[Anonymous No.3562818]

>>3562769
Having a design be balanced is visually satisfying.
There are two types, symmetrical and asymmetrical.
Symmetrical means all elements treated equal or mirrored.
Asymmetrical balance is achieved when you don't have the same size objects, but using color, contrast, focal point ect. you make it as visually important as the other objects.
In order for the piano to be in balance with the sky, it needs to be different in some way with the rest of the composition..

[Anonymous No.3562820]

>>3562818
i'm an idiot, scratch that part about asymmetrical balance, it would still be symmetrical.

Post often, post consistently. Marketing bullshit is all bullshit.

You need a gallery or skilled art dealer to do this for you. An art dealer will have a portfolio of collectors and should be able to find those that purchase your class of art.

Sadly few galleries are this competent, most are vanity projects or little more than private members clubs. I'd recommend you visit art fairs and hit up the booths and see what's going down. Also, try illustration agencies, you might get a gig drawing book covers or some such.

They don't call you back? Scratch them off your list.
