I resisted it for years—but finally joined. TikTok looks like it's here to stay, and I had mixed feelings for a long time about hopping on the bandwagon.
As an artist, I get asked a lot about where I work. Do I rent a studio, work from home, or just paint on the side? As a video-based medium, TikTok provides a unique way to show low-production clips of people dancing, teaching, working, etc. I'm personally not here for the dancing (though it's super entertaining to watch), but I'm embracing the app as a way to show my studio and share some behind the scenes videos of work in progress.
Whether you're looking to get into painting, want to see how my artwork is created, or just enjoy seeing the process, follow along and I'll see you over on the app!
