I should be working on more digital tiles...I SHOULD be; but instead, I've taken this morning to review social media trends to see where we should be focusing our efforts as we move forward. It is mind-boggling how fast sites come in and out of favor with the public, how much people are veering towards visual medias once again, how much people do not actually read posts past the first line...
The old motto, "A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words," still rings true; in fact, truer than ever it seems. And thus, so it is true when revealing new artwork. We want to give teasers, but not the whole story. We want people interested, but the idea that only giving a taste so people will want more is falling out of favor. When purchasing artwork, and in my case at the moment - digital tileset art, people want [and rightly so] to know all of the pieces involved in their purchase. As artists, we want to be protected, to not be instantly right-clicked and saved, but we have that inner urge to share our work, for better or worse.
