Anti-social media
I have neen using social media for years to promote my artwork and tattoos And it has roundly been a good INVESTMENT of time. That has all come to an end with the introduction of Meta to facebook and instagram. For a while now the platforms have become less and less effective for artists to showcase their efforts. I’ve spent years Building an audience on ig and delighted in positive responses to my posts. These days a tiny fraction of my followers even see my stuff. Loads of people came up with strategies to combat the algorithm. Conflicting theories of maintaining connection to people. Then meta was introduced and turned my curated feed into nothing but ads and unsolicited content. It’s a hellscape 0f ads and people lip-syncing. Not to mention the unethical scraping of my efforts to feed ai image generators.
I’ve Decided to abandon posting illustrations on ig. i am also phasing out using it for tattoos. My hope is to funnel people to this website. A place i can share efforts with interested folks.
So this means i think you should check back here often because i will be putting more and more content On this website!
