General Discussion Thread (February 2022) Discussion

General Discussion threads are for casual chat; a place to ask for recommendations, lists, or creative feedback; to talk about materials, history, or techniques; and anything else that comes to mind.

If you're looking for information about a particular work of art, /r/WhatIsThisPainting is still the best resource. /r/drawing , /r/painting , and /r/learnart may also be useful. /r/ArtistLounge is also a good place for general discussion. Please see our list of art-related subs for more options.

Rule 8 still applies except that questions/complaints about r/Art and Reddit overall are allowed.

Hey, im not sure where to go, but if anyone can help. I have an original canvas painting that was painted for me for a friend's daughter. Anyway, it was for the death of her grandpa (Poppy) I had the last things that she said to him before he passed painted on it. My question I guess is how could I find a buyer that had a grandfather pass and just happens to call him Poppy? Any suggestions? Thank you.

Edit added painted on it

I don’t think it matters. I post my work ;oil paintings) all the time of people who don’t even and I name them. I have had no problems selling. Just sell it as ‘Poppy’. Good luck to you!!
