Ocean of Art 6: Dive in and discover some promising new Steemit artists

in #art7 years ago

In my continued effort to promote and improve the artistic community here on Steemit I am doing a weekly curation! Most of the artists I have chosen are still minnows and are waiting to be discovered and others that I will feature have just plain impressed me!

One of my favourite artists right now on Steemit is @reinhard-schmid. His paintings are absolutlely stunning in both technique and content! I am particularly in love with his Tarot Friday series in which he posts an original tarot painting with an explanation of the symbology used. Here is a close-up of his most recent card "Vlll - Justice", see the full card at the link below the image:

The next incredible artist I found this week is @daomanhoan who is an architecture student and I was blown away by their watercolour paintings of cities. In their most recent post they presented three gorgeous paintings, the last one of a unique looking bridge:

@whiteblood has been posting some very beautiful water-colours as well and this one of a woman with a headdress is particularly striking! You can see her process in the link below the image:

It seems I am in love with water colour this week as the next artist @prostosun has caught my eye by doing a still life of flowers in the same medium :) The strokes are so fluid and loose looking and they have also included a very detailed step by step which should be very useful for aspiring artists:

The last artist on my radar today @zugart has made some comic book style submissions for Inktober, I love the noir look of these and I think they will get us in the mood for Halloween, this one is called "Death and the Maiden Marilyn Monroe", just a warning the other image in the post is a little NSFW:

Great selection @juliakponsford. I am so glad that we have you to find these wonderful artists. I have seen @reinhard-schmid and I did a piece off one of his steampunk sculptures. He is very creative. The others are equally amazing. Keep up the great work!!

Yes, @buckydurddle, your interpretation of my work was one of the most unusual and best feed backs I ever received! Thank you for your kind words 🎻

My pleasure @reinhard-schmid, thank you. Your work is truly inspiring :) All the best to you my friend.
