I absolutely understand being busy, just thought I'd give a little feedback. I appreciate your reviews, and how you are the leading edge of #penstr, so glad we have a fountain pen community here.

Lol, dude, that right there was love! You say something; a little clumsily, maybe a little stupidly, and you hear about it for the rest of your life...;⁠-⁠)
Btw, I write my wife a note every morning before work, and I try to make it poetry about once a week.
The 5 Love Languages, is a great book...

Wow, beautiful! That was before I was following you. Almost a tame painting compared to your current style.

They are so beautiful. One day, when I live in a real house, I will hang one of your paintings on my wall.

Interesting how different people's tastes can be, I like the one on the needs work pile best, of course, I don't know what you are going for.... I'm excited to see it though!

Been a while since I posted to any socials.
I have started my watercolor journey.
This is my first piece; no reference, just putting down some very bright colors, trying to understand washes...

Not a show, but thought I'd plug a book, Tress of the Emerald Sea! One of the most refreshing, funny, romantic, and engrossing books I've read in a while. Part of a larger "Cosmere" so there are some references you might not get if you haven't read the authors other work, but a very good standalone none the less.

Who's work? I love it, almost looks like Moebius, but maybe a little too industrial...?

Yeah, I took the picture in landscape, and this is how it uploaded. I didn't take the time to fiddle with it, figure folks can turn their phone to the side; if you are on desktop... Well, don't give yourself a crook in the neck!

Quick art upload, pretty happy with this one, first time taking on the challenge of water... Used Noodlers Walnut, Kuretake black brush pen, and De Atramentis Atlantic Blue. The moon is ink on a tissue, dabbed on, and then gone over with a white charcoal pencil. https://image.nostr.build/8df74a8f21eec9a45d8b2cb9cdc1835c80c9aa997ee75cc399ffd90a30e7fe76.jpg

There are varying degrees of ability, perhaps things like eye sight, and perhaps the gift of opportunity, but I agree with @npub17nd…950x no artist got there without thousands of hours of hard work, exploration, and probably plenty of self doubt/criticism; not to mention public criticism. Plus, fame is not a consequence of gift, there are plenty of amazing artists who are not very famous.

2024-04-15 16:51:59

Hahahaha. Nice, in the old and new meaning of the word.

I would try to not be too tribal about it; X is good competion, #nostr will be better for it, and if there is a problem #nostr can't overcome, another will replace it.

I've been using it a little through Spring (android) and like the way it's designed. I'm also using Habla, but the ability to curate and share "highlights" is pretty awesome.

Hmm, this post has made me think more than any other i have yet read on NOSTR. Thank you.
I know that if I could afford to buy paintings, I wouldn't wait for them to go on sale, if I (and my wife) liked it, we would buy it.
I don't know how much your paintings cost, I have never look , I already know that no matter how much I love them, I can't afford to buy them...yet...
I think these other comments are right that you shouldn't sell yourself short, and also that you shouldn't be discouraged. Keep refining your craft, and keep exploring new ways to market your art, and also your skills. You might paint landscapes of people's own land for them...
I really appreciate your art, and hope to build myself a strawbale house and hang paintings on every wall!

Been a while since I posted any art, here is one I started when I was at the nursery with my wife, she can spend hours walking through the greenhouses, so I just find a plant and draw it. Added colored pencils later.

A little planter with some turmeric plants! Trying out a fountain pen I got a while ago. At the top is a note-to-self; I have a tendency to draw small, and need to draw as big as the page will allow!

This is the story of all of human history. When things are easy people will become lazy, mentally as well as physically, when things are hard, people (some people, I hope I am will have the courage to be one of them) will rise to the challenge. We can never build a system or society that lasts forever, hopefully though we can build one that gives people the option to opt out, that seems to me one of the greatest strengths of the freedom tech being built.
