I always think it's so they can seem ~artistic~. Like the artists who take photos of their artworks with three pencils or other drawing materials strewn artfully around/on top the picture. Just the digital version of that.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh
not to sound like some sort of purist or whatever, but can that instagram bullshit just die? I just wanna see the work, not a carefully selected assortments of copics arranged tastefully on top of your work.

I always feel like they try to signal "Yes, I drew this myself, see, these pencils/brushes are proof!" but... Yeah I think it's kinda stupid.

And half the time the art in question isn't lit well enough or isn't in focus for me to actually see the work the artist put into it! Like, I do enjoy knowing what sorts of materials you put into the work, but please, let me actually see the damn work! Bah!

It's an alternative to using watermarks. People don't want to give you a thing they worked hard on with supplies that cost money for free when they're trying to sell prints. Think of them as previews of the thing you could have on your wall if you like the artist and want to support them.

- an artist :)

If they're selling it then it totally makes sense, good thinking those guys, I fucking hate seeing reposts where people have cropped out watermarks

If they're not selling it I assume they're copying it off someone else with no idea of the reasoning and just think it looks nifty

(ayrt, btw)

I'm an artist myself. Still think it's annoying.

[(Anonymous)]

Not an artist so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I'd prefer a watermark. Looking at a pic like that it's hard to imagine what the 'finished' product would be, whereas with a watermark it's easy to say, "Yep I'd pay for that."

[(Anonymous)]

nah, it's an affectation to imply structure/undersketching but it's integrated clumsily with the rest of the style

-- also an artist

Am I the only person who likes the sight of a tasteful arrangement of art supplies around a drawing? Give me more, please!
