Fun and Interesting Artists Worth Following on Instagram

We couldn’t possibly list every remarkable artist on Instagram since there are literally millions of them. As a daily user of the photo-sharing site, I follow many wonderful people, most of them artists, and wanted to share some of those individuals/companies with you. Here are 15 fun and interesting artists that @printkeg follows.

@colour_only85

This artist focuses on DC Comic characters along with popular Marvel and Disney icons. Currently, the artist is eagerly anticipating the next Superman movie so he’s focused on Superman and Batman. There are thousands of Instagrammers creating fan art, but something about this artist’s style intrigues me.

@rogueleadertattoo

Anyone willing to provide services for a niche group of Star Wars fans and tattoos is either nuts or brilliant, and I’m betting on the latter. This has to be the coolest name for a Tattoo shop ever. I personally would call my Star Wars tattoo shop Tatooine, but that’s me!

@sliceofpai

Lover of travelling, Joanne Pai is a food and lifestyle photographer in Vancouver that puts most foodporn to shame. Her photos are as beautiful and simple as the food she photographs.

Conclusion

I could write a thousand posts listing talented artists on Instagram and that would barely scratch the surface. Millions of artists showcase their work through the social network which is the major reason why I love the photo-sharing app so much.
