SIGH

in Sketchbook2 years ago

I've never had a plan to build a huge fan community, make subscription plans and sell art to my followers like that. I'm a small artist and for almost 10 years I work with pretty much same clients every month. The only thing I really wanted (from my social profiles) was to be visible for them. Because every commission I've got was a result of someone saw my stuff online.

But looks like it's a problem now! My Instagram is not officially blocked but even my friends barely see my posts now. Even if everything was rigged to be so. I'd understand it if I were posting some NSFW or gore (or even worse), but I'm not. I animate my doodles and everything is so "family friendly" that at one moment I thought it's just boring and this is the real reason why I've got almost zero activity.

I'm going to post +/- similar art on different platforms and gather statistics about how things are working now. Because I'm not going to stop and the "be visible" plan part is still there.

Thanks for your attention!
