/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

I want to be a mentor for artists (like adults just starting to learn art) or someone who does studio sessions for a career. I have been told I either need to be famous or get a master's degree in art. I can't afford that jew amount of money to get that type of degree so I am left with getting famous. I feel so fucked. Why the fuck do I want this? I don't want to work for riot or some other shitty company. I just want to help people. It sucks to watch people go through art alone in modern times. I am not pro-level by all means but I am decent enough that in my college I am the best in all my art classes.

It kind of hits me that maybe this goal is stupid, the number of people who mock and say you can't mentor in art or teach it has been many. I don't want to teach minors because their fucking actually retarded. What I want to do, no one knows how I am supposed to get there other than I teach at college or be famous. My work doesn't get attention online which also rubs this idea further. I don't even want to be popular online I just am told it's only way or go into life crippling debt.
