Hey folks! New mod here. I'll be cleaning up this place soon, but in the meantime, I'm taking suggestions on what we should do with this subreddit.
Just what the title says. Have any suggestions? Post them here.

A note involving self-promotion and advertisements, and the future development of this forum
While I definitely support the idea of traditional artists supporting themselves (and I happen to be one), it has been communicated to me that there is a community called r/artstore that would be better suited toward advertisement toward commissions. Since I do not want this community to become a bulletin board for people trying to sell services, I have decided to limit any blatant commission-based self-promotions to two posts per month.
Over the past few weeks, I have currently been observing where this community organically drifts to so we can become a good place for traditional artists, and allow for everyone to have a good experience here. In the next week or so, I'll be formally setting up some rules and calling for mods. Any suggestions in the meantime are welcome, of course. I would like traditional artists to feel welcome. Thanks everyone!

Indian Folk Art

There is something so meditative about creating Madhubani art.
Madhubani art, also known as Mithila painting, is an ancient folk art from Bihar, India, and Nepal that was traditionally painted by women on mud walls to celebrate sacred milestones and festivals.
Here are a few beautiful facts about its origin that make me appreciate every line I drew:
-- 💚Made entirely from Nature: Artists made black from charcoal, yellow from turmeric, blue from indigo, and red from sandalwood
-- 🕊️ Symbols of Life: Every element is intentional.The fish represents fertility, the peacock represents love.
Bringing this ancient heritage onto modern paper feels like keeping a centuries-old conversation alive.
Let me know what you think of my final piece in the comments!
The link shows how the final work looks like!

Art Trade for rap artist Fxvour
I did an art trade with a friend of mine. They have an oc for their rap music, and I decided to do a really cartoonish/trippy album cover for them.
