How does this group work?

MY-OC is a CLOSED group, this means that I (Lumarien) – in general – invite the artists.
But people can also ask to enter.
I search for artists that create something special and work constantly on their artworks and style. People that try something new, something different. That are not afraid to go out of their comfort zone. So that every watcher can see the development of the artist over a specific time period.
Before I send an invitation I judge the technic, the anatomy, the shading, how worked out the background is, the perspective etc.
After all that comes my opinion. So I always TRY to be objective.
(But of course… art lies in the eyes of the beholder.)

I’m just a human. I can’t make it right for everybody.
Please understand, that I don’t want to hurt your feelings, but I always try to be fair and honest.
Even if that honesty is hurting you at the beginning. It is way better than baseless praise.

I don’t want to offend someone. I don’t want to make you feel bad about your art or something like that.
But I think that there are so many groups out there, that let everybody join… why can’t there be ONE group that is a little bit more exclusive?



What do we focus on?

As the title shows, we are focusing on OC´s, BUT we are also accepting every other artwork.
