RE: A Pinch of This

in #art7 years ago

There is something very interesting here "creating a new artwork is more profitable than", I never thought like this (ok it's probably because it's not the case for me ahah), does this way to see your art came when you switched to a full time job as artist or has it here before?

And I look forward for your article (and your Van Gogh portrait ahah).
It's a pleasure to talk with you and to see that experienced people are enough open to share their experiences :)

Well, when you are living from the sales of your artwork, then such thoughts certainly come to the fore. It is just a necessity. Sales translate into being able to pay the rent, the power, buy new materials, feed the artist (you) to keep art production going. It is simply a question of sustainability. Otherwise, you're back to taking other jobs to cover costs and the artwork becomes secondary again.

Most happy to converse with you @apolette. =)
