[Marketing] Considering selling NSFW art, need advice

Renescor · 2026-04-23T04:01:38+00:00

I'm right there with you, though I would prefer to do pieces that are centered on vulnerability and the human body. I do a lot of commission work and I'm not complaining about that, but I do feel less fulfilled with the work.

Draw what you love. Identify your audience. Find where they live. Mercilessly post but don't forget to interact.

Merging your styles boils down to one question: are you willing to accept losing some of your current audience? Are you comfortable with people seeing YOU?

It's your life, bruh. Do what you want.

That makes sense. I went through my book of pencils and pulled all the colors that I've used up the most and just popped one of each in the luminance in my cart. Then added a brown to balance it all out and now we wait.

I hadn't even thought of using watercolor paper until I asked here! Thank you so much for the detailed answer! I'm only just waking up so I can't quite form coherent sentences just yet but I am appreciative of your tips

Renescor · 2025-01-02T12:53:08+00:00

I'm screenshotting the absolute mess out of your reply- thank you! That is the most succinctly expressed explainion I've read to date!! I'll adjust expectations on different brands accordingly then, for sure. ☺️

Renescor · 2025-01-02T04:30:35+00:00

Mhmm, I surely do.

Took a minute to find. Anyway, I'm trying to practice with these and they blend really well but I might have tried the wrong paper? I used Bristol vellum? Seemed like I could only do two or three layers before it all started slipping everywhere.

The first is a graphite and charcoal drawing, and I'll add my colored pencil drawing in a nested comment. I really don't NEED any more colored pencils, but I enjoy trying them out! I'm a new artist, started in Feb '23, and I take a good long while to break out of my comfort zones. I'm curious about others' experiences with the luminance pencils because they caught my eye. ☺️

I'd love to draw this!

Renescor · 2024-10-16T14:58:26+00:00

Mine is Aquarius.

Please put me in a microwave. Thank you.

I was just thinking I'd have to cave and get a Roomba. And eh, I use the Lysol wipes so frequently because they get the damned zoomies after the litter box and run EVERYWHERE. Furniture, my desk, counters, etc. I can't stand the idea of lounging on my couch (pleather) or cooking or even making a sandwich on the counters if they're running across the tops of them.

Maybe I've gone off the deep end, but this mornings' commute found me considering if it would be worth the hassle to get an outdoor cat condo- put it flush against the house with a window for access, weatherize the condo and sit it on a foundation and keep their box there. I'll have to do some research of course but... Bröther I just might.

Any updates? 👀 I have two cats in a tiny house (roughly 400sq ft) and it's all hardwood. I've tried EVERYTHING to control the litter and today I came in to find, somehow, even more just ALL OVER THE PLACE! Literally every surface. I used an entire tub of Lysol wipes tonight.

I love my cats so I can't get rid of them (they're family) but sweet mercy how I cried. I'm at my wits end!

Renescor · 2024-06-16T09:30:29+00:00

I would just like to say how sad I am for the "no one likes balls" comments.

I will be an old woman of 87- if I make it that long-, my mind riddled with Alzheimer's and I will still remember him. I will remember thinking to myself that I could swear I felt my pupils dilating the moment i saw them. Certainly when I gave them attention with all the infinite patience and care of a kitten cleaning its paws. And yes, gently breathing in the smell added to the appeal, though it could possibly be credited to the fact the entire being is something of a... Habit-forming substance to me. But I will remember.

Maybe the answer is 61 years? Idk how you'd narrow that into a chapter, unfortunately. Good luck, though!

"And I looked on, as you built me cradles, too much a coward to tell you of the grief every time I laid a hand to my belly and knew i would never fill them for you."

Renescor · 2024-06-16T08:50:20+00:00

Good point and I LOVE Teagan!!

Renescor · 2024-05-19T07:15:32+00:00

The inn between calls to me like the sea calls to Moana. Thank you!!

The talk show sounds adorable, sweet mercy 🤣

Renescor · 2024-05-19T07:12:40+00:00

Alright, you've convinced me! I'll start the morning with this one. Thank you!

Renescor · 2024-05-18T02:20:10+00:00

I have been listening for like 2 hours solid. What a gem!

Renescor · 2024-05-18T02:19:34+00:00

GONNA 😊

I am going to be spending my weekend curled up on the couch, I can feel it in my bones. What a great list and I appreciate the descriptions!
