The NEW #SmallWins by Art Storefronts!
(edited)

Social Boost Thursday (July 23, 2026)

It's Boost Day! Here's how it works:

  • drop a link to your latest social post, and the community will show up with likes and comments.

  • Then return the favor – visit a few links in this thread and do the same for others.

Why this works: receiving engagement (ie: likes and comments) on your social post tells the social algorithm that it's valuable and entertaining content – making it more likely that the post is then shown to your own followers and art fans outside of your network.

So by helping each other “get the ball rolling” with engagement, we all grow! The system only works when we all contribute though – so be sure to give back as part of participating in this weekly thread.

A lighting storm that passed by our house in Rosharon, Texas! Amazing how powerful nature is.

Hi everyone! Here’s mine. I’m hoping it’s not too boring/ too much talking. I worked hard on this reel.

Saying goodbye today to my 11th painting sold this year! This reel is close to 3,000 views which is pretty darn good by my humble Instagram numbers. https://www.instagram.com/p/DbD8NWUuFhx/

Bear in mind I am nervous about reels ...the lipstick bit was a joke I thought I'd edit out but what the heck!

Imagine the moment the camera lens passes through the wave revealing both, the surfer, and the under water scene. This is the vision I am capturing in this original 18"x24" oil on canvas.

So sorry, neither link took me to your work today. But I searched and found your art business and left a comment (from Light Pixie Studio).

I'm really late today. I wrote to my subscribers over the weekend, then shared some of it to IG, FB and Linked on Monday; it's personal and connects the dots among knowing what's important, thoughts about seeking beauty, and why I've been somewhat missing over the past few weeks. When your heart stops beating, you must care for the life you're living right now! I'll get to yours tomorrow and through the weekend. Take care and be well: https://www.instagram.com/p/Da-73A9ls2I/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

I'm always interested to see id a static shot or a long exposure shot makes the more interesting photo.

Definitely depends on the context/vibe :-)

So if you were to choose for you, which one would work best?

On your post, I selected the long exposure :-)
