Episode 2 of my Instagram curated recommendations. As previously stated in Episode 1, I am a lover of all the branches of creative expression, and throughout my digital travels on the internet, I stumble on some pretty amazing stuff. Finding new artwork opens up an opportunity to look at my own personal work in different ways. Our work exists in the content of our current world, the time we live in, what came before us and what will eventually come after us.
I know a bunch of people are moving over to the latest art social media but as someone who has lived through every iteration of a social media platform, I personally plan to wait until there is a critical mass of numbers and it proves it’s worth before I put any energy into it.
Here are a few artists, designers, photographers, or general vibes I think are worth adding to your IG feed:
Francois Bard
Allen Williams
Many of you already know Allen but just in case! @i_justdraw
Paolo Puck
Randy Ortiz
Kata/ Mischievous Dog
Erik Sandberg
As always, you can find me on my own social media channels. Happy surfing!
Instagram – lots of process videos!
TikTok – I don’t post here often enough but I’m there!
ARA Boston Website – where I teach
Gumroad – free handouts, cheap instructional vids
My Website
Great article Julie. Instagram (despite all the AI controversy) is still a strong happy place for me to look at art. My whole feed (minus ads) is just artwork done by incredibly skilled artists. I am happy to see that you included Randy Ortiz as I watch him on my feed. They are just an incredibly skilled, artistic BEAST. I will be looking at the other artists you recommended on here as soon as I finish this comment. Hopefully it isn’t mistaken as one of the bots currently posted here.
Great article
