For many, the pandemic has set their priorities straight. It put things in perspective when your privilege gets taken away. And some of us have had enough time to introspect and take stock of our lives. We’re finally beginning to realise how toxic our hustle and lives have been. Sometimes the people we follow on social media also add to this toxicity. So if you are in the process of culling your feed or your on the hunt for inspiration I’ve been slowly collecting accounts that make me feel calm. And there’s something so calming about watching people do their art, don’t you think? So I’m going to do ya’ll a favour and list out a few of these accounts for your sanity.
Here are a few of my favourite art accounts to follow on Instagram that helps me self-soothe:
1) Si – Floral Line-Art
Line art is something that I am so stoked to have tried my hand at. It takes time to complete but is a very fruitful and enjoyable process.
2) The Artsychoke
These pretty art pieces could easily form the basis of a fabric, no? Devika C Mahajan is evidently talented.
3) The Ink Bucket
Vidhi Khandelwal is such a talented illustrator and she makes the most gorgeous wall art too.
4) Varsha Lad
Varsha is a self-taught artist and nature lover. She is highly skilled at gouache art.
5) ArtByItisha
Itisha plays around a lot with acrylic paints and impressions of nature.
6) Zentrigued
Packed doodles with shiny pens on black paper. So, so beautiful.
7) Artsypu
She mostly works on a mini-canvas also replicating the beauty of nature with her art.
8) Pastelpalettebytanya
Tanya Singh paints natural scapes and flower art with acrylic paint, mesmerising.
9) Zafikha Aida
Zafikha is a really wonderful watercolourist and is really skilled at her shading.
10) Kamya_marwah
Kamya explores the world of fluid art, which is completely tantalising.
