Aside from the current large project clients I have, I think I need to take time off and do some of this.

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.

We need to do this, sir.

Finding time for your own art is a real thing. Maybe a little during the holidays. But never enough.

It's next to impossible for a lot of us in precarious financial situations. I'm really lucky my wife's new job took off this year, or I'd never be able to make a call like this.

I feel you. I don t even remember how many time i cryed all my tears because drawing was not sustainable to live. Now is working better but I am lucky, from that situation even only thinking about doing something that’s not payed make me feel sick.

I 💯 know that feeling, it probably will haunt me as long as I live.

I wish there were stronger guilds for artists out here, because having a better network of support remains really niche for most of us.

I'm Canadian. It's not much better here, though at least the taxes are more straightforward. 🫂
