Been away for a while but maybe gonna try to give mastodon a fair shake again. So uh... here's some recent illustration work as an ice re-breaker....

@wendinoakland Thanks Wendy!
Yeah I'm on instagram at http://instagram.com/nicetriangles and I have a web shop with some prints at http://nicetriangle.com/shop
@rafa_font Thank you! Indeed this stuff is Euro inspired. I'm from the states but I live in Amsterdam and these are based on photos I took in Portugal, Italy, and Spain.
And yes I do take commission work, but I'm booked up or traveling for the rest of the year so I won't have any openings until about mid January.
@dgavin thanks! yeah I really like those areas of Europe as a drawing subject. They have great colors and this sort of perfect imperfection to the buildings that I find so charming. It also gives you a lot of leeway to riff and be expressive and still have whatever you come up with usually feel at home in the composition.
We almost went to Greece earlier this year but ended up going to Sicily instead which was incredible. Greece is for sure high on the list. I love the Mediterranean.
I saw your art on r/malaga! It is pretty wonderful. Love your style. Great eye for capturing the spirit of the places.
Say... Why not go full Fedi and open an account on Pixelfed too?:
@Bro666 Thanks man, really appreciate it.
I actually did (probably still do?) have Pixelfed account kicking around, I just remember that the site ran really badly a couple years ago and it was pretty dead for content. Has it improved much since then?
It works fine: solid and stable. As for content, it is no Instagram! But that is up to us the users to correct, right?
Also: perfect integration Pixelfed <-> Mastodon.
Speaking selfishly, I don't use Instagram (or FB, or Threads, or X, or... You get the idea: I am one of _those_ people), but would definitely like to see your new projects in my feed.
@nicetriangle Hot dang!!πβ¨
AMAZING architecture paintings - I really love the perspective & color tones in each piece! ππ
Also: welcome back! π₯³ I hope you're able to find/help build a supportive community of excellent people, & an appreciative audience to boot! ππ
Those are fantastic!
@nicetriangle Hey Isaac,
In case the user interface for Mastodon is part of why you stepped away from it, keep in mind that there are LOTS of interfaces that you can use for Mastodon.
I use Elk.zone, for instance, which I find to be more like old school Twitter than X, without the cursed algorithm.
