I am begging artists selling traditionally painted originals to take better promo photos. Is it framed? It's okay if it's not. What does it look like propped up against a wall? Hung (maybe over a side table or a sofa)? A photo is going to help me imagine this in my space and hide flaws from digital scans that make the work look 'off'.

#there's a post that keeps coming around and i will be honest i can't afford the art anyway #but every time i see it i wince because of the presentation #i honestly think they'd get more pictures if the art was framed better (not necessarily a real frame #just putting it in a scene for a buyer to go oh hey that would work great in my xyz spot!)#but i feel like it would be super rude to comment on their post and say sooo....#but anyway i really want them to be able to sell their art!! make that rent!!!#i'm referencing one post but they are not the only person i've seen just pop up some scans or crop a photo so that all you see is the art #and nothing surrounding it that would help draw me in #i'm also specifying traditional art because i don't notice that being a problem for digital art in the same way because is natively digital #rather than translating over through a photo or scan
