hey, even frazetta did it

Watching the interviews of instructors on Jeff Watt's youtube channel made me realize one thing:

even THESE absolute gods struggle to get by and pay the bills. we are fucked. we are all fucked. art is a thoroughly worthless pursuit. i should have become an engineer. would still allow you to become a better artist despite not being able to commit to it 100%. but you would make up for that in mental health, expendable income, early retirement, lotsa savings, a loving wife and family to motivate you and provide creative stimulus (good luck starting a family as an artist, much less finding a remotely wifeable woman)

all art is garbage. you are all fucked. i'm fucked. i hate you for not talking me out of this.

According to ManicTimer, I clocked 48 hours and 15 minutes working in photoshop last week. Sweetness.

What about you guys?

Uh, could you name more iconic fantasy compositions than the Conan and Death Dealer pieces?
