I simply love Instagram. No fluff, no unneeded information. You can build your stream to match your style and taste. Don’t feel obliged to follow your friends and acquaintances, find people who inspire you and create a visual stream that will energies you.  Here are some accounts I’ve discovered and really like. They are all artists, specializing in different fields and techniques. Their Instagram account is amazing, filled with color and positivism.

Tania Samoshkina is an illustrator from Saint Petersburg, Russia I’ve originally discovered on Etsy. She creates cute, dreamy illustrations, perfect for a story book or a cartoon. I love her colors and the way she presents her art. It’s fun and entertaining.
