To help promote and improve the artistic community here on Steemit I am doing a weekly curation! Most of the artists I have chosen are still minnows and are waiting to be discovered and others that I will feature have just plain impressed me!
@ferjart has entered my contest a few times and I absolutely love his style, in this post he shows us the process for making this digital painting called Love and loneliness:

I found @artistchristian through their amazing Slothicorn entries, in this post they showed us a watercolour of Princess Leia with very spacey hair:

I can't believe I have never included @barbara-orenya as her work always makes me smile, here she shows off some work she did for Caturday:

@inksanity is a newish account that I just came across and they post these original ink drawings daily:

Last up is @shinyforest who already was on my radar from winning my contest but I had to include them here, they make the most whimsical drawings that seem straight out of fairy tale books and often shows the entire process:

If you enjoyed these artists please give them a follow and some encouragement!
I would like to invite all the artists featured and those who are reading this to join the Minnowsupport Project! It's a great way to network, gain followers and chat with your peers in a more relaxed environment.
We also have a room called art-discussion that we hope becomes a thriving place for artists to discuss process and inspirations!
I have made a newbie guide for joining MSP here: https://steemit.com/minnowsupport/@juliakponsford/minnowsupport-membership-tutorial-comic-book-style
I hope to see you in the pond and Happy Holidays to everyone!

The fist picture reminds me a lot of Batista’s work but in a brighter palette! Thanks for sharing!
Yeah I love his style so much thank you for looking :)
Sick! I've been looking for more artists to follow on steemit, so thanks for this. I especially love those last two, busy hand-drawn stuff like that is one of my favorite styles of art.
Normally I wouldn't comment to come check out my profile, but if you're looking for artists to follow, come check out my Mandalas and 80's fashion/video game inspired art :)
