This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨
Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

Saguaro Deset Sunset, acrylic on primed hardboard
No, I would not. How did you get it to glow this much? Awesome work!
Thanks! The glow is a combination of glazing pyrrol red and vat orange over a very pale primary yellow and putting it next to darker, flatter and greyer colours. Sneaking in some quinacridone magenta always seems to work some kind of magic, over red it make it a really punchy red srifting to purple with more layers. Then i made sure i spread the colour into the objects, and up past the edges of the horizon. Vat orange punches above its weight in glow.
Very cool. I have a friend who paints from time to time. I'll make sure to let them in on these secrets. ;)
