i too have felt the discouragement of not making enough money from art!! despite having an etsy business and a steady(ish) flow of ig followers, it just simply doesnt pay my bills like people always say it could do someday. working at a coffee shop has helped me immensely, but even then, it doesnt feel like a forever thing. its hard to see what the future will hold when even the day by day finances seem like a daily uphill battle. thanks for writing this piece allowing some space for collective artist venting <3

Your work is really, really beautiful. I absolutely love it and I am in awe of it. Please continue to create it and share where your work will be shown and for sale.
