RE: A Flight of Fancy or A Potential Reality?

in #art6 years ago

Really nice and valuable to hear your thoughts on thus! oh i have thought how to make it work too, but I haven't found the solution at all! at some point I worked my was out, trying to "be visible online, at it took all my energy away from being creative! then I got burned out at some point and decided to fuck it all and just work with my garden and as a mother. but I started missing art too much, and parts if me still wants it to be an income, since I think everyone should make a living doing what they live and using their skills, so I am slowly coming back - but very slowly, since I don't want to burn out again!

Hi @frejafri, oh yes the burn-out!! I completely understand how you try and give it your all - both to the creative part and the pr/ marketing - and even then still not making enough money. Pretty soon the work you loved has become a drag and has left you in poverty! I hope that in time you can find satisfying ways to keep your creative self thriving while still making the money you need to.
