It was a really tough year. It takes most artists on average about five years to get to a sustainable income. Most don't because they quit. So - best advice is keep going.
Congratulations to make it to a full year! I loved hearing how your year went and knowing that someone also resonates with some of the struggles I had this year as a full time artist/small business owner! ❤ wishing for a better 2025!!!
I hope you keep continuing to grow. You're one of my favorite artists of all time, and I loved everything I ever bought from you. I hope cons go better for you in 2025. I know a lot of other artist aren't doing the best at cons either. I'm hoping to continue to support you on everything! Your amazing and I'm so proud of you!!! Your doing amazing ❤
So glad to see you discussing your experiences and giving us insight into the field of being an artist professionally. Your art and videos have been a huge help and inspiration to many. Keep up the great work 🫀🫀🫀
I love these videos. It's so interesting to see others experience with being artists. I really wanna sell my art sometime in the future and these videos are great for learning!
How would you recommend treating art like your job when you actually have a "normal" full time job, and aren't financially stable enough to switch to part time?
Setting some time aside after work for your art is a good place to start! Even if it's between 30 minutes-1 hour, it'll still be a consistent schedule you set for yourself each day. If you're also trying to earn a side income from your art while working a full time job, doing commissions or selling digital products (example: coloring pages or Procreate brushes) are good ways for treating art like your job too! I hope this helps 💕
