Art Share🎨

This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

That blue background is so nice, it really makes the tangerine stand out

That's a trick they teach you in art school. You can use contrasting colors to make something seem brighter or stand out more than it normally would. In this case, they used blue and orange. A very lovely blue I think.

It also might come naturally 😊 I choose the background color from a stack of colored papers and I found it particularly nice with the tangerine on top.

Edit: my server seems all broken since the 0 19.2-3 debacle so I (Loulou) had to make this reply with another account (the reply doesn't show up with Jerboa)

Thank you! Those (water based, so you dont need to get sick of the fumes of all that toxic stuff) oil colors are so amazing!

I feel I will have to learn to dial down the intensity of it all...
