rain shadow
I've been posting to Instagram lately and I had a few posts that got over 1k views but barely any likes (only around 40)
I want to know if that's just insta being insta or if there's something I can work on to make my art better
Any tips would be greatly appreciated cause I really want to improve but I feel like I've hit a mental block and I can't see how to make my work better 🫤
BTW, i know the mermaid pose looks stiff, it was my first time drawing one and I wasn't using a reference 😅

Make the colors less dull! Your great at shading, just not in the right direction, have more of a lighter shade instead of direct if that makes sense :>

Thank you for the compliment and for responding 🥰 when you say the shading, do you mean the blues and purples I use to deepen my shadows? That these need to be brighter? Or all of my shadow colours? Cause I can't see it myself but I do trust you, I know my stuff can appear dull 😭

😞its kind of hard to explain- on the last slide the blue is very direct to the eye, like its brighter than anything else, same with the chest and stomach. I dont know if its on purpose, but maybe in a couple of your drawings, try to go for more colors that are easier on the eyes, like your 3rd one for example! Its alright to use "direct" colors, as long as its not overwhelming the viewer

Ahhh I think I understand 😅 I see what you mean with the last picture, its definitely my least favourite for the reasons you've pointed out and the stiffness of it. Thank you for the advice 🥰

I think there's no three dimensional vision..like on the oner with the claw machine, the bears seem all paper klike surrounding the woman. I could suggest giving more effect to a woman being here, on the drawing, for example. But i'm not sure.
