It always seemed like most of the popular art on Reddit was based around pop-culture. That's not really her thing, so not sure how popular it will be here.

Her name is Dominique Marriott and she paints these with a calligraphy brush. I don't want to cross-post the same stuff everywhere, but it seems like Lemmy really needs as much content as possible at the moment. So I'm putting different pictures on different communities. Take a look at my profile if you want to see more of her work. And do say if you like it. She'd love a better option than Instagram.

Yes, diversity and variety in creative expression is most welcome!

Really like how minimal yet expressive your partner's works are ๐Ÿ˜

Love this, it does so much with so little actually on the paper! Such a cool medium to make art with.

Thanks everyone! These comments have been so encouraging. I've now set up an account and have started posting work myself.

Great beauty can be captured with simplicity and minimalism like that, I think she's doing great with this and hope she posts more!

The tattoo possibilities, oh my!

It's so elegant and simple, it has exactly the strokes it needs so that the shape can be identified. I love it.

It's more expressive than eg. Picasso's line works. Really nice

I went and looked at all of the posted works and this is my favorite. She is very talented I hope she decides to bring her talents to Lemmy.

Well done. Please tell her to keep up the good work!
