First of all, you are VERY talented! I just happened to stumble on you, how lucky was I?

You could consider making bigger posts - meaning that instead of having 5 posts about 5 different tattoo ideas, maybe just have one post that has them all?

1 "viral" posts will give you way more exposure than 5 that do not get going at all.

This is just a quick idea. I will try to support you to my best of ability but my voting power already is running low! So many new people!

I think the thing is I only have so much work to spread around - and I did do a big compacked post of my older works - here. Nobody really checked it out. SO yeah I am experimenting to see what works and what doesn't https://steemit.com/art/@artwatch/older-stuff-art-dump

I will talk about this in part 2 - Thank you for your kind words and I hope you like whats coming.

When it comes to rewards and views; I think the issue is that it just takes time. You're already posting high quality content that should get way higher rewards, people just aren't aware of you or your content. Over time you'll see your follower count grow and everything else with it.

We also have to remember Instagram and Reddit pays nothing, zero, nada, or any other social media at the moment. Compared to that 2 dollars already is quite good. This is something that should attract content creators from every level and then the masses will come.

Can you also imagine that?

That is true - I feel like I come across impatient and probably am in a lot of ways. HAHA still working on that... But it's good to document the weird emotions so that later I can think about why I felt that way when I posted... I don't think I am alone in these emotions and I have found that people engage with me when I just put the cards on the table. It's a new start - new strange flutters in the tummy as I try to grind away for myself. It feels good though.

Norman Rockwell eh? Also a fan. If you then could see you now. Went down the rabbit hole looking for your intro piece but don't have access that far back. So I'll assume your a real human and not a really freakin' talented bot.

Yeah it takes ages to load the really old stuff.

I was rather discruntled when I first got here so my first couple post were filled with bitter angst. https://steemit.com/story/@artwatch/moving-mandala-art-and-wood-burning-artists-first-post-here-looking-for-a-home Then I had a catfishing/stalker thing happen and a friend took down a bunch of videos I had on my channel. Might make another channel but for now have been using sound cloud for uploading audio clips.

That gif is freaking awesome! You're insanely talented and it's inspiring. I'm trying to learn how to make one myself, everyone says it's easy. I'm also into dark art, so I look forward to seeing more posts.

Followed and I look forward to your stuff too. Thanks for checking it out and leaving feedback for me. It is appreciated.

Cheers and much LUV,
HR
