Ian McQueI should get started posting stuff I guess? My main obsessions are ships and architecture. And trees. Trees are cool. Oh and robots. Here are some of those things.
The FUN-GINEERS@ianmcque Welcome! So glad to see you here!
Roy Scholten@ianmcque great atmosphere in all of these.

Crystale@ianmcque hi! I see you are an artist and want to share your art with us, please check this thread about pictures description https://mastodon.art/@Curator/109279035107793247 as described pics have more chances to be shared here 🙂

We have a lot of blind and partially sighted users on the fediverse. Accessibility is important here, and as such, it's good form to include image descriptions (alt text) when we add media to our posts. When someone uses a screenreader to read the timeline, and the screenreader comes to an image with no alt text, it just says 'image' (as far as I know). That's boring, unhelpful, and provides no clue as to what the image actually *is*. This differs slightly depending on how you're using (cont)

I'm so happy to see so many artists jumping over here! Let's free art from the corporate networks - no need to let them profit off of it.

Heh, yeah. I think it's just tough for many artists to jump on another platform - it's extra time, and the clients might not be here yet.
If you mean the artwork in my post an my site: yeah, they're my paintings. Great to hear you like it so much!
@oxpal Yes, your paintings are amazing!
Chris Lewis Lee 🌳@ianmcque I love Edinburgh and you never fail to make me wanna be there through your art!

Iteration 1@ianmcque These, but especially that third image, remind me greatly of Victor Hugo's ink and coffee drawings. Love them all!
Andreas Finger 🦋@ianmcque They look amazing, I love that style! Is there a name for it?
Realism, but with a twist?
Surealism?
Comic-Realism?

Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven@ianmcque Welcome Ian, I was hoping we'd see you here. 👋🏻
I'm sure people already told you, but search/discoverability here is driven by tags.
See https://fedi.tips if you need some more information.
Marek Michalak@ianmcque That's really cool. Did you have any particular inspiration in mind when drawing this?
Kind of reminds me of old English fishing towns.

Spiraloid@ianmcque welcome Ian. Yes, Please do. Thanks for all the inspiration.
stop genocide punch nazis@ianmcque I really like this series!
I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the last image recontextualizes the first from "where's the water gone" into "just another day at the dock", which was a nice surprise. 😃
Kat@ianmcque so happy to see you in here 😊
Jens Claessens@ianmcque i like it!
Ara 🔭🐑@ianmcque oooh, these are gorgeous!!
