That's why there's too many artistically furstrated crabs in /ic/ because they like watching anime and playing video games more than practicing art.

I feel like I'd take art 1000% more seriously if I had a IRL friend to compete with. It's just really lonely grinding alone. Online "friends" don't work.

Art is a skill based competitive field.
You don't need paperwork, You don't need experience. Your portfolio is everything you need to get started. 6-25 Pieces of artwork that showcase your ability to be what they need.

There is no barrier to entry that says: You've got a Masters degree. you are competent for this gig.

Take a step back and a wider look at the process.
Completing artbook, studies, drawings from life etc. may not be fun in itself, but to contemplate your slow improvement measured by the tasks you finished piling up can be very satisfying.

Same thing when playing video games, you fuck up over and over again but it's that one moment when you do something so epic that makes it all worth it. Art is no different, it's just more personal since you're constantly reminded of your self worth.

It's easy to find a lot of time for art if you are willing to sacrifice anything else for it, that's why even normal people can become very good at it if they focus entirely on it.

The moment you will need to manage multiple things the difficulty becomes very high for a normal human being. It's very stressful and the chance that you will take large breaks that will put your progress on huge brakes increase by a lot.

It's always the people who overestimate themselves and their own discipline that end up total shitters because they were not willing to sacrifice other things for art and just wanted to do everything.

The best part is the "16 hours a day of work" is just a meme used by feng and others to cause burnout among the ranks of would be artists and competitors.
