Show your art, then reveal the artist who made it

An art vs artist template is a two-frame Instagram story format that pairs a finished piece of artwork with a photo of the artist who made it, giving viewers a quick look at both the work and the person behind it. VEED's version of this template is edited right in your browser, with nothing to download and no other app to open.

Swap in your own painting, illustration, or design work, then drop in a selfie or studio shot for the artist frame. Clean up a scanned piece or photo first with the background remover, then adjust the colors and text to match your feed.

How to make an art vs artist Instagram story:

Step 01

Browse templates and pick a story

Explore the gallery of Instagram story templates and choose one that fits your story. Select it to open it in the editor.

Step 02

Edit the template and swap in your elements

Replace the placeholders with your own. Rewrite the copy, drop in your photos, and adjust the colors to match your brand. Edit the prompt to change the artwork while the layout stays put.

Step 03

Resize and post to Instagram

Resize to Instagram story dimensions and export. Download your story, ready to share on Instagram.

Swap in your artwork without leaving the browser

Drop in a photo of your painting, sketch, or digital piece for the art frame, then swap in a portrait for the artist frame, all without downloading anything or opening a second app. Edit the prompt on either frame to shift the background, lighting, or mood while your layout and text stay exactly where you put them.

Skip the search through Instagram's own template drawer

Instagram's built-in story templates are buried in the sticker menu and rarely built for a two-part comparison like art versus artist. This gallery is browsable and filterable, so you can find an art vs artist layout, open it straight into the editor, and start swapping in your work right away.

One comparison frame or a full studio series

Use one frame for a single art vs artist reveal, or edit a set of frames back to back for a process-to-finished-piece series that reads as one run. Start from a correctly sized blank story canvas with the AI image generator, sharpen a scanned sketch with the image upscaler, then save your fonts and colors to a brand kit so every pairing looks consistently yours.

FAQ

  • An art vs artist template is a two-frame Instagram story format that shows a finished piece of art in one frame and a photo of the artist who created it in the next, giving followers a quick look at both the work and the person behind it. VEED's version of this template opens straight into the browser editor, where you swap in your own artwork and artist photo without downloading a file.

  • Pick an art vs artist template from the gallery, then open it in VEED's browser editor. Drop your artwork into the first frame and a photo of yourself, or the artist, into the second, then rewrite any labels or captions to fit your post. Edit the prompt on either frame to shift color, lighting, or background while the two-frame layout stays put, then resize and download the story ready to share.

  • Yes. Start from a blank, correctly sized Instagram story canvas instead of a fixed layout someone else built. Add two frames, write a prompt to generate the artwork for the first, then use the AI image editor to refine it or drop in an artist photo for the second, and set your own fonts and colors. Save the layout to a brand kit so every future art vs artist post matches without rebuilding it from scratch.

  • Instagram's own story template feature offers a small, fixed set of built-in layouts for arranging photos and text, and none are built around a two-part art-and-artist comparison. VEED's gallery includes dedicated art vs artist layouts you can filter for and open straight into a full editor, where you swap the artwork, photo, colors, and copy, or edit the prompt to redraw the piece, before downloading the finished story.

  • Search the VEED template gallery by name or browse the Instagram story category, since Instagram's own app does not group templates by creative theme the way a dedicated gallery can. Filter for an art vs artist layout, preview it, and open it straight into the editor. You can also start from a blank story canvas and build the same two-frame layout yourself if none of the existing templates fit.

  • Instagram stories display at a vertical 9:16 ratio, 1080 by 1920 pixels, and that size applies to both frames in an art vs artist story. Templates in VEED's gallery are already set to that canvas, so artwork and artist photos land in the right spot without manual cropping. Resize the same story for the feed or another platform when you want to reuse the comparison outside of stories.

I found VEED at the right time: if you're making UGC ads and not using Eye Contact Correction and Noise Reduction on VEED you're missing out on ROI.

More than an art vs artist template

Start from an art vs artist template or a blank story canvas, then edit the prompt to change the artwork in either frame while the layout holds. Swap in a new artist photo, rewrite the caption, and adjust the colors to match your feed. Save your logo, fonts, and palette to a brand kit so the pairing looks like your account made it, then resize for stories or the feed. VEED is an AI image creation platform, and the same two-frame setup carries into next week's piece, a full studio series posted frame by frame, or a finished-piece recap once the collection wraps.
