       Advice for Artists:Are you working on a painting of nature or where nature plays a key role? Consider adding ants. Ants are a part of every natural environment that isn't a glacier. If you already have a few ants, why not add more? How many species do you have? Even if it isn't a painting of nature ants are also found in most "unnatural" environments and can bring a touch of nature to your scene in a living room, prison, or church. Ants add a sense of scale and it's hard to have too many.

       @futurebird hard to tell if you love ants or are secretly on the payroll of the Ant Lobby. Maybe both ?

       @futurebird you will certainly not regret adding 30 to 40 ants to your painting

       @futurebird "Ants are a part of every natural environment that isn't a glacier" within the small land-based fraction of the biosphere. Or widen the gaze to the wonders beyond!

       @AquaClaire Okay point taken. But when the sea ants evolve it's all over for ya'll.

       @futurebird @bri_seven Somehow having a Fediverse account from the future and telling no-one is just the kind of thing Dali would have done.

       @20002ist Probably not. Though... IDK it's always good to get checked, right?

       @futurebird When I was working on this piece, my love said  "it needs ants". So I added ants. And he was right. This particular abstract drawing was vastly improved with ants. https://www.artatomic.io/product/fine-art-print-of-floral-network-and-ants-drawing-small-/73
