This is a very good visual for how talking about artists helps us. If you’ve commissioned, bought from or worked with an artist, please talk about it. It helps us a lot.
Last year, an author mentioned my shop on her substack. It changed my income so drastically that this is the spike of orders from that *one* mention last year. Word of mouth for an artist can change everything.

Homestly the biggest is that rates haven’t kept up with inflation and the cost of living. When I was a noob barely out of art school, I was able to cover my rent on a nice 1 bedroom apartment with what I earned from 2 days at the drawing board. I don’t know any new artist who could say that today.

I haven't been on here for a while,but yeah so I'm finally settling in a bit at my new dayjob. And might I just say that I'm not sure if americans know this or are aware but let me just say anything that's happening over there is greatly making waves all the way here in Asia. It's certainly...A LOT.

Before the pandemic I used to get invited to schools at career day type things to speak to young adults and teens about work and one thing I wish i told them before was whatever opportunities come their way is that their health should come first no matter what

Have you ever drawn so many pages of a comic….sit back and think about the flow and add more pages in between pages until it feels right? So anyway
