Kacey is an artist and illustrator who likes to both paint digitally and draw traditionally, in my opinion with great success no matter the medium. From her profile I like a lot the fact that she posts quite a bit of studies, exercises, collections and so on. It really gives me the idea that art has way more than a single form, particularly because I can see beauty in all the fairies she tried once, or all the notes she left on the canvas... I see art in the 10 different poses she's trying to train on, using the same subject, and while it's a simple concept and it should perhaps be obvious it's not what we're used to see on the platform these days. We seek perfection which can only be achieved through practice, and her sharing such process is amazing

Eleonore is an artist from France, she paints digitally and does a lot of cute, funny, lovely little characters. She does keep her subject simple and there are usually a few basic rules to recognize one of her creations if you scroll through them on IG. I feel like the lookouts have to be: watch out for little cuties with big heads, big eyes and big ears. If you see a ton of joyful colors you're pretty much sure you found it.. Add in a smile and there's no doubt, it's Eleonore's painting! Something I like to do is taking a look at all her posts and see how many characters I can recognize since some of them are representations or were made getting inspiration from movies. After you've seen a couple they all seem to belong into a single big collection

Zelyphia is a self taught artist based in France, she paints digitally and does a lot of female characters. Sometimes you'll see her experiment with other subjects or incorporate them in the art which is always a pleasure to see. A passion of her is the one for the color purple: it's hard to find an artwork missing the tone, it seems she can always find the perfect spot to at least throw that in, even if it's a small detail. Between all her creations I love how she can diversify the art so much while being pretty focused on female character's portraits

Viktor is a visual storyteller from Bulgaria, he makes lots of portraits and there's quite a bit of traditional medium on his feed. Some of his works, especially the covers, are digital and completely amazing, but pretty much the rest are pencil sketches in which there's no doubt at all he's a master. His experience is invaluable, in his career he has been a graphic designer, a creative officer, a novel creator, a freelancer and this is just a slice of the full list.

Corah Louise is a freelance illustrator, character designer and storyteller based in the U.K.. After looking at her art on IG I felt inspired by a piece of her bio on her personal website (link below) where she shares a concept that's concretely making my day better, she said: "Being creative is my connection to the world, whether it be through illustration, photography, writing or crafting - creativity translates over all languages.". I think those words are beautiful, I can relate to them and it brings me joy to see there's someone else out there taking art and creativity as the main vehicle to connect with the world.

Lara is an illustrator based in Vancouver, Canada. She paints lots of different things ranging from character portraits to cool sci-fi environments. The trait that for me distinguish her art from the rest is the exceptional use of colors. There are a few paintings here and there that follow the traditional scheme of things but the majority of them sport a good amount of odd choices, neon light colors, transparent tones or overlapping of shapes to create various opacities and crazy good effects. It's sure I'm attracted by the shiny things I'm not so used to see, but I like them a lot even after the first look
