That's not exactly true Vicky, but in a way, it is lol.

Supporting old accounts more? I think you are right about that. I mean those people have been here for ages, putting in the efforts and doing their very best, so don't you think it's fair to them that the community is more supportive of their works?
I'm just four months old but I've used these past few months to learn a few things about HIVE in general.
It's true that you will notice that old users/accounts have more support from the platform regardless of the community compared to new users, and if you ask me, it's fair to them, they've been here for a long time and you don't know the sacrifices they had to make to get to where they are and it's very evidence in their works and levels.

As for being more supportive of digital artists than traditional artist, I can't say much about that because I've also noticed that the digital arts get more support, perhaps it's because of the detailing, you can agree with me that digital arts captures that a lot more than traditional arts because of the tools/brushes available for them to tweak their artwork however they want it. personally, I'm always amazed by those digital arts, most of them are top-notch that it can't be ignored.
Traditional arts sometimes lacks the tools to capture those stunning blends
It's not that it is not appreciated, but it wouldn't be the same way compared to the digital ones that are more captivating don't you think?

I've been seeing your artworks for a while, and your style and pattern of drawing is quite unique and cool, so don't be discouraged if you aren't getting all the support you desire or think your work deserves.
All of us here are trying and putting in our best. I know just how you feel cause sometimes I feel that way but I don't let it wear me down. I'm giving myself time, and I know that it will get better someday. So keep putting your work out there, and keep doing your traditional art with joy, with or without the community support okay?
If you want, you can try digital arts too. I think you will do just fine with that as well and see if there will be any significant change.
Have a blissful weekend Hive account@vickyanne
