  • @rocovailo2862
    @rocovailo2862 Год назад +36

    Definitely relatable ~
    But I will say one thing I feel most artist go through is undervaluing their work. Both because they themselves don't believe their quality and time is worth it and because they might reinforce that thought from a vocal complainer of the price or because they don't see much attention for their work/commissions being open.
    Often the later issue is more because you haven't marketed yourself enough. Many a fledgling and even experienced freelance digital artists will stick with posting their work and communicating with their audience through one website and use only the posting feature to get the word out there.
    You GOTTA market yourself. Post to various galleries not just one -- interact with various communities where your customers hang out in (could be a gaming forum, or a discord channel, or even a local friend group) -- art as a job is more than just making the art itself. You gotta get yourself out there~ and constantly~! (sometimes even asking people you know might be interested in some art from you rather than waiting for them to message you first)
    As for the value of art itself, I hate when people think the value of an artpiece should be compared to an hourly wage earner's value (or dramatically less).
    No -- the work someone doing retail (for example) for 8 hours and getting paid 11/h is NOT the same as an artist that spends 8 hours drawing an artpiece. There's the time it took to communicate with people-- the marketing involved-- the bookeeping -- gallery management (also let's not forget the various institutions that grab chunks of your commission pie-- like paypal transaction fees or government self employment tax-- which for me means all the money I take in is really 30% LESS than the front face price I charge someone. That 11/h worker has his taxes and other things usually accounted by the employer)
    Then there's just the value of the work itself and the fact that those 8 hours are accounting for 8 FOCUSED hours of work. In most hourly jobs you have periods of "down" time that add up -- I think on average most retail jobs will have something like 4 hours of "focused on task" work and 4 hours of "non-focused" activity (be it chatting with an employee-- checking your phone-- or in general just walking around and not actively focused mentally or physically)
    TLDR -- value yourselfs more digital aritists ~

    • @saycap
      @saycap 23 дня назад

      The reality is that art has no inherent value, meaning people can potentially value it at anything. And that anything usually happens to be $0 for the average Joe. When people commission a popular artist, they are buying a name, a brand, convenience and scarcity. They aren’t paying for your art. They’re paying for all of the esoteric, Skinner box Pavlovian conditioning concepts around the art. Marketing, baby. This scales from a rookie commission digital artist to van goghs in some billionaire’s art repository. Your art is only worth what you say it is IF PEOPLE BELIEVE YOU. And that is the hardest and most critical part.
      I watched a video (forgot what it was) but a family in I believe Kansas bought an original renaissance painting unknowingly from a thrift shop for $30. They got it appraised later and were offered $50k. Once that painting was restored it was sold by the auctioners for hundreds of millions. Guess who never saw a dime of that money. Seriously, before you go into an art career, you need to take this into consideration. There’s a pecking order of ‘replaceable jobs’ and artists are somewhere at the front of that line, while farmers are at the back. So you’re likely going to be fighting tooth and nail for even decent pay for your entire career. I think it’s better as a hobby tbf

    Getting so many requests after closing commissions is relatable to me...from the other side.

I spent about 2 or 3 years without getting any commissions because that just kept happening over and over.

      Not to say people can't make a living off of freelance and commissions.
      Saying that also implies that the artists work isn't worth paying the money, which is wrong. Artists spend hours for artwork. and its not like they can crap out an amazing drawing every hour.

      Charity is hard to come by when most mid-lower class people are struggling to pay their bills. Basically, NSFW makes so much because they’re playing the whale game. More people jerk off then build creative projects. The chances of hitting an art whale who is doing it for a creative process is very low, and if you do it’s almost always a business with a salaried position available for you. Draw p8rn and you’re casting a much, much wider net. Vastly wider. Then you hope and pray for a whale.

    I felt this video on a spiritual level.
    I'm not saying this because of the few clients I've had. Out of the 10, I think only 2 ended up giving me any frustration or trouble. The rest, mostly boys, have always been really nice and I thank them for that.
    But I strongly identified with the frustration of customers never showing up, or showing up and leaving out of nowhere.
    However, I never had a moment when I closed commissions and clients showed up :'D
    I think I'm too invisible, considering that my profile with the most "influence" has only 100 followers, and I don't know how to get around that, I've been on the market for 2 years. I don't know if I charge too much for commission in my country (Brazil), or if my work is just not good enough, but no matter what I do, be it promotion or anything, I hardly have a customer.
    I'm starting to give up little by little, but I think I can hold on a little longer, maybe it's worth it?

    Oh chipflake this is why I have clients sign a contract before I begin the commission. Works sooo much better.
    I do high quality 3D work now, so commissions are usually in the range of 200$ - 600$. I've got one client paying around 1,700$ for a full custom avatar.
    Try using a broker service like squareup. It takes a little to get used to, but it helps ensure that once the client orders from you, there's a legal paper trail showing they did infact agree to the terms to pay.
