/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

I've known artists of far lower skill level than mine selling their work for thousands of dollars on galleries. Because they graduated from top 5 Universities in my country they have huge connections, especially political ones. I am quite well respected among artist circles but can't make big bucks. I'm very introverted too and can only gain exposure through internet. This worsened when I refused to do commissions for political propaganda, don't have art friends now. This is why I started lurking here in 4chan.
