I would like to start out with defining what you want to achieve as an artist/producer of content and tailer your needs to that.
And for doing so there are different categories. Traditional art sells different than digital concept art, which again is different from more graphic design stuff.
And how do you want to sell your product/earn money. If you want to work for an in-house studio your needs will be different than if you work freelance, or if you just want to make your own stuff and sell prints of that.
In any case on each social media platform it takes time (as in, it isn't instant) to build up a following. Posting once half a year, won't do the trick. If your skills are good it goes faster, but it still takes time and effort.
What do I use?
Instagram, Twitch, DeviantArt to post stuff. Although DeviantArt is a pain and I spend less and less time on it.
I use Twitter to say when I'm gonna stream on Twitch (... or at least try to).
Stream on Twitch mostly because it keeps me focussed and sometimes you get nice company.
Oh.. and in all cases a personal website doesn't hurt. :) But as said before, people need to find it somehow.
