It's crazy because I technically have somewhat "made it" as an artist, because I have 3 small clients, but I think I was way happier and stable than I had realized when I was just a cashier. The only thing I get to do now is draw or walk around, can't even drive until I get car insurance again. 👍

I used to listen to Trent Kaniuga, Feng Zhu, and Adam Duff. I think Trent and Feng are brutally realistic about the art/gaming industry and Adam is more about "inspirational nothingness" in his videos. But it's getting to the point that I don't even want this career lifestyle long term to be honest.

I used to just be this dude that drew stuff for fun and tried to write little blog tutorials about how I drew stuff, but now it's like... I can't do that, because now it's what I HAVE to do. Even though I don't prefer to draw for numbers and engagement, I HAVE to as a job.
