Format of future artworks?
Added 2023-08-23 12:39:17 +0000 UTCHi all! A bit of a more technical question than usual here, but I've been wondering if I should change the format of my artwork.
Currently, I draw on default on a A4 canvas, which is the common "printer paper" size in my country, and only make it wider if for some reason the art doesn't fit in the canvas (like, looong dragons :3 ).
To work, I still use a Wacom Cintiq from over 10 years ago which has a rather "square" screen which is not very different to A4, but I realize most people nowadays have wider proportioned screens... so I'm thinking about switching to a more panoramic size, like 16:9, which displays better on modern screens.
What do you all think? What format do you prefer?

Which format works for you the best for what you feel like doing, don't let it limit yourself. I find joy in your art regardless of shape. Digital or real media, which inspires you at each time!
