andddd.. another DA update :)

hey guys welcome back once again!

Since my last update for the BETA project, i have mostly been focusing on creating more content for my instagram page.  Because of this I am slowly gaining more followers on average a week, compared to previous weeks. Following my plan to have a posting schedule, I have been posting 2 photos of my progress on the piece I’m working on each week. One on Monday and one on Sunday. I have also been staying consistent with posting art based relatable quotes throughout my feed to try and further connect with my audience. 

Recently I have been receiving more comments on process and other art posts that have been really motivating to keep going. I reply to all the comments I receive in order to keep the feedback and engagement loop going.

My intention moving forward is to dedicate a whole day to content creating. That way I can have prepared posts more frequently. Relating to the #FIST principle again as this will help me develop multiple quick and easy pieces of art (or content) to share over a longer period of time. 

Regarding the idea of using Patreon as my main platform to monetize my artworks, I have completely scratched that. The  subscription is quite complicated. Basically in order to make money I would need a very large number of ‘subscribers’ of which contribute very little. As well as Patreon itself taking a small percentage of what you make yourself. Due to these reasons and other risks involved I have decided to move away from this and think of other ways to monetize my artworks.  I will continue to promote the sales of my pieces through my instagram page as well as Twitter whilst I try to think of new ideas to make sales on my pieces.

    Hey Kyra!

    I love everything about your DA and wow your talent just amazing!!
    I love how you have your dedicated days for content I think that’s very important for growing and developing your Digital artefact and its community.
    It great to see that you take time to reply to comments on your posts, I find that this helps to get to know your audience as well as keeping your online presence active! (we all know how annoying a ‘ghost’ account is lol)
    One idea that could possibly slip into your DA well, could be a giveaway of a small piece of art! this could enhance your follower interaction as well as getting your page out there! especially with the festive season coming along quickly, this could be a perfect time!
    I can tell this is something your very passionate about and something you work extremely hard on and I’m sure all your followers can see that too! such a genuine desire for art.
    Keep up your amazing work! I cant wait to see what the future holds for artt_process 😊
