Your (honesty and ease as an independence content creator + sweetness as an amateur video creator + a pinch of gentle sadness) makes a lovely sincere feeling around something useful and realistic. Thank you for your donated productive time.

Tbh, running an artist`s Instagram has become such a race. You have to create non-stop to be visible. It`s pretty exhausting. And obviously, we can`t create masterpieces every day

Thanks for the vid. So style question because I get soooo many contradicting stateemtns about that. Some people say that art directors want their style they don't care about your style and it seems like requested styles change every so many years. For the sake being more hirable, my portfolio has 5-10 photos of a different style (trying to hit 20 of each). I went for the more universal styles (fantasy art, flat art, line art, concept art and commercial). If I submit my work to an art director whose style reflects one of those, do you think they would still be iffy about the variety? Ideally I would give them the link to the part of the site that reflects the appropriate style (each thing is seperated) but obviously there is a chance they would look at my other work.
