Social Media Observations, Part II

Letting Your Art Speak for Itself

This is the second post about social media observations, you can read the first one here.

As I said in my first post, I am no social media expert, but here’s another thing I have noticed about posting art and I will get straight to the point.

If the piece resonates with people, it WILL get shared. End of story.

I think social media is a great way to test different things you are working on. Some of my pieces get lots of comments and shares and others, not so much. It could be the algorithm that everyone likes to blame, but I think that’s a cop out. I think it’s too easy to blame something outside of ourselves for not getting the response we want. I think if the piece is solid, the values are working, the message comes through, it will get shared.

What a thought, eh? You can quit worrying about it now and just keep doing your best work.

That is all. Love you for reading.
