minus-squarepindapinda@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 years agoHey @NexiusLobster, I really appreciate the art you’ve been posting! Just a quick tip when posting Dutch/Flemish artists: “van” means “of/from” as in William of Aelst and is not capitalised in Dutch last names. Keep up the good work.
minus-squareNexius_Lobster@lemmy.worldOPMlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 years agoOh I see, Thank you for the correction! So it should be William van Aelst instead of William Van Aelst
minus-squarepindapinda@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 years agoYeah, you got it, of course it’s still “Willem” which is the Dutch version of William. Where are you from?
minus-squareNexius_Lobster@lemmy.worldOPMlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 years agoAh gotcha. I’m from India
minus-squarepindapinda@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 years agoHow cool, you’ve got good taste ;) I am ashamed to say I don’t know a lot of traditional Indian art.
