RE: "Last Night in Osaka" (Watercolor Painting w/ Process)

in OnChainArt3 years ago

Thanks for your quick response. Sorry, I understand that tagging is not supposed to be done and won't do it again, but I'm genuinely curious. I have been on Hive for years now, but I really don't understand why I can't get past a certain "fan base" and the occasional Curie vote.

I feel like I'm spinning my wheels: I'm crossposting in a bunch of appropriate communities, so post visibility should be fine. But some people might consider that spam, despite it being a legal feature? I tried long posts with text, currently short posts with nothing but pictures, posts with videos... Maybe my paintings are garbage? But why then am I getting positive comments so often?

So, we have established that you hate tagging. But please give me one minute and drop me a hint whether you have noticed my paintings at all in the past, and where I'm falling short. Thank you!

Hello! I like your art. Speaking of your question, will I tell you that I've only been here a few months and I think Hive is a bit of an odd community, for better or worse? I don't know, you can have 100, 200, 500 votes on your posts and that will not necessarily translate into an increase in followers, since usually those votes are from "trail" and the profits are from whales that may or may not like your art regardless of whether it is good or not, since everything is subjective, in my opinion the whales seek to encourage what they consider "good publications" that end up being "profitable", maybe I'm wrong but it's what I think. All this generates that there are publications with good content but not very paid and publications with little content and paid excessively, but it is only my opinion, in the end I think that one should publish what we like and improve day by day.

oh and don't worry your art is great!!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this with me. :-)
