“draw what you want to be hired for” is sound advice so long as you accept into your heart a great many types of beautiful, heart-touching, arousing art styles and themes are unhireable. unmarketable. draw what you want to connect over. have tea and coffee over. draw a door to a digital salon.

“What makes something art?” It’s the human decisions, the fingerprint of their specific viewpoint appearing in the final work, that makes something art.

-human tries to use art to perfectly communicate something they see or feel
-they fail
-in failing, their fingerprints get all over the art
-other humans see the fingerprints and find them beautiful, learn something unexpected about the human that created the art which is beautiful

the way things are right now will make you feel like you are foolish or naive or delusional for being a good person and doubt reality but you aren't alone and many other people can see and feel the injustice too

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

It's not a new or surprising observation, but it is really something who is allowed to be grieved and how they are portrayed after tragedy by those in power and in the media.
