I treated it as a hobby pretty much the entire time I did art and just messed around in online drawing rooms.
Now I work in a studio doing concept art/vis dev full time.

Never really grinded fundies or focused on stuff I didn't like just because someone online told me I should
know how to do them.

As long as you enjoy the process of making art and you are genuinely interested in the what you are doing
you'll probably find a way to make it your living.

Treating it as training isn't the right mindset for most people. It definitely works for some but if it hasn't
worked for you so far maybe try doing it differently. If neither works maybe art just isn't for you.

Also I guess it's worth mentioning that my only form of art education is watching all the The Joy of Painting
episodes, so maybe that has somewhat affected my perception of art.
