    Group Description

    A supportive space for painters to share work, exchange ideas, and post thoughtful, constructive feedback. Whether you're developing new work, experimenting with techniques, or seeking fresh perspectives, this group is designed to encourage conversation, reflection, and mutual support.

    Who Is This Group For?

    This group is open to painters working in any style, at any stage of their career, and based anywhere in the world. It's a place to share works in progress, finished pieces, questions, and reflections, while engaging respectfully with the work of others.

    Guidelines for Sharing Work

    • This is a medium-specific group. Please share painting-related work only.
    • When posting work, let others know what kind of feedback would be most useful to you. Specific questions often lead to more meaningful responses.

    Uploading Images

    • Wherever possible, share a direct link to the image you'd like feedback on.
    • If uploading an image file, please ensure it is no larger than 2MB and no more than 1600 pixels on its longest side.

    Deletion of Posts and Images

    To help maintain the performance and sustainability of the site, discussion threads and uploaded images will be automatically deleted after one month.

    Giving Feedback

    • Be prepared to give feedback as well as receive it.
    • Be generous, respectful, and considerate in your comments.
    • Remember that communication online can easily be misinterpreted. Take extra care with your tone and wording.
    • Focus on helping others reflect on and develop their work rather than judging it.
    • Ask open, neutral questions where possible. For example: "What informed your decision around colour?" rather than: "Why are your colours so dark?"Frame feedback as observations, questions, and suggestions rather than statements of fact.

    Receiving Feedback

    • Assume feedback is offered in good faith and with positive intentions.
    • Engage with feedback openly, while remembering that you are free to decide what is useful for your practice.
    • If something is unclear, ask for clarification rather than making assumptions about a commenter's intent.

    Community Code of Conduct

    • By participating in this group, you agree to help create a welcoming and respectful environment for everyone.
    • Only share work that you have created yourself, or that you have permission to share.
    • Treat all members with kindness, respect, and professionalism.
    • Do not post content that marginalises, discriminates against, or excludes others.
    • Harassment, bullying, threats, or abusive behaviour will not be tolerated.
    • Do not post content that promotes, encourages, glorifies, or threatens violence.
    • Do not post content that promotes, encourages, or provides instructions for causing harm to people or animals.
    • Do not share content that promotes false, harmful, or misleading information that could cause harm to individuals or communities.
    • Do not share content that supports, celebrates, or promotes hate groups, violent actors, or harmful ideologies.
    • Discussions should remain focused on painting, artistic practice, and constructive peer feedback.
