This was one of my first posts on Steem a few years ago. It was a class demo in a digital painting class I was teaching at the time. I remember that there was this Chinese artist who I really liked and I'd shared his work with my students. I really liked his digital brushwork. The next class one of my students found his brush set online and gave it to me as a gift. I never would have found them because he'd shared them on some Chinese art forum.
He got a good grade.
This was one of the first paintings where I started using those brushes and since then they've really become a large part of the look I like to create in Photoshop. Of course painting in Photoshop is not about brushes, it's about your foundational skills, but the brushes can add a nice cherry on top of that.
I think most of you know what #showcase-sunday is, but for the record, this was an initiative started by 
Content discovery on Steem currently sucks. I have around 3 years worth of content on Steem, but since the user base is fluid with people coming and going all the time, aside from what I produced that week, or maybe even within the last few weeks, it can be like the rest of that content doesn't even exist. If your blog is about current events or BTC charts or something like that, this isn't really an issue, but if you're a creative here, that's a pretty big problem.
So on Steem we have a few cultural stigmas that developed over the years, and one of them was reposting content.
This is an idea that I want to promote even further especially now that we have communities. If you've got some artwork that you've posted in the past, that you think is pretty cool, by all means, come to OnChain Art and share it with us. It's not hard to tell if someone is being genuine or spamming. If you post the same drawing everyday for a week, that's obviously not what I'm addressing. Most of the artists here are just cool people that want to be in a community and share their work and see the work of others. That's what OnChain Art is about. So let us see what you've got Steem artists and enthusiasts. Leave all that #oldsteem baggage at the door and come in and enjoy yourself.
See you all in the next post.
