/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

It's pretty easy to make a living when you make art aimed to other people, and not for yourself.

Artists sign up to art for the very opposite reason. To become their own therapists and entertainers.

I mean if dentists only studied to fix their own teeth they would be poor too.

At some point you have to chose. Either become only self centered and pray that people will buy your message or just go full blown illustrator with no voice of your own. The longer you stick in between those two the more you suffer.
