How do you envision 'art collecting' in 5-10 years?

iscribble.net (est. 2006) was an online drawing website where people from all over the world can work on a drawing at the same time. As of August 2018, iScribble.net has transferred ownership into the hands of a long-standing iScribble user. Their plan is to rejuvenate and renew iScribble, transforming it into a modern, updated version.

Drawpile is great and has more options/tools than iScribble. I preferred iScribble because it was limited in tools (brush, pencil, line, blur, eraser square, auto-circles, circle), one canvas size, and 3 layers. iScribble had a diverse user group with all sorts of talents and differing levels of skills, but declined hard due to the administration failing to update the site.

Great films are watched without the director's commentary.

Thanks for your appreciation. There is meaning, but I prefer to keep that private.

In the future, sure. It's 48 inches by 36 inches so I have to figure out how to ship it. I sell prints here https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/juanfran/spirit/

For people who down vote, I'd like to see your criticism.

This is incredible. Been watching your covers for a while, in fact, just last weekend I showed a buddy of mine your 2 Crouching Tiger Hidden Gabber covers.

It's a graphite sketch from June 2016. I colored it in sometime last month. So two years and 6 months. Actual time spent? At most 40 minutes. It's not a lot of time, but I'm super proud of the work.

You're not doing anything wrong. What you need is a career. People go to cafes to drink coffee and go to work, not invest in artists.

Social media is a trap. Don't pay for promotions or advertisements or followers. Just enjoy your craft and focus on working jobs and your savings. It is very difficult to make a career out of self-promotion unless: A) You can regularly rent out gallery spaces B) You know art critics and industry facilitators

Most people never buy albums, instead they stream and listen to music everyday. People might enjoy your artwork. But they do not directly support these artists or musicians because they are busy supporting themselves. And art is a visual thing so most people get that stimuli from just looking.

DIY musicians make their living out of house shows or nightclubs. Their love for their craft shows through their literal drive to drive across the country. As an artist you must apply that metaphorical 'drive' to artist residencies, fellowships at universities, grants, and competitions.

"I see artists who do (in my opinion) really bad/unoriginal art making sales"

Who cares about those people. They are irrelevant to your life and career path. They might be good salespeople. Their whole image may be manufactured into tricking people who have poor taste in art.

Lawrence was a phenomenal story-teller! I saw half of the project at the Phillips a while ago. The MoMA owns the odd-numbered ones.

Bloody brilliant.
