How to Grow on Instagram as an Artist 2025?

[marisolkeaton]

With the recent algorithm changes favoring "original" content and longer-form Reels, I’m struggling to get my illustrations seen by new people. What specific engagement strategies are working for creators who want to know how to grow on instagram as an artist 2025 without losing their creative voice to trends?

In order to become a better artist, focus on originality and not trends. Showcase your process, storytelling and personality through longer-form Reels, which is rewarded by the current algorithm. Connect with your community on a more personal level by making quality comments and collaboration posts with other creators to reach new audiences, genuine and authentic.

Focus on storytelling Reels (process + behind the art) and consistent genuine engagement in your niche, comments and replies matter more than chasing trends.
