I guess I have a habit of thinking that everyone is new to everything, but if that were true, People like me wouldn't write for people like you. Whoever you may be reading about this. The economy has been a quite a funk but It's important to know and plan ahead for when the time picks up. Planning and strategies are truly everything for the new artist. You may find yourself doodling and you look at the other art pieces from around the world and you say, they make this money, so can I.
Regardless of who said it first, it is true, and standard. For an artist to release their soul and continually put their passion into paper, into the air, it's important to stay positive. Most people look to art to relieve them from a sense and feeling of pain and others use it as self-expression, regardless of how it is used, one must continue to use it, like a drug, if not one may find their life spiraling into a weird complex design that you never thought was possible. This is because freedom to release is a mental thing that manifests into reality whatever way it sees possible. So what do you do? Find a way to relieve that stress, and keep your brain away from "HOT ZONE SECTOR: S.T.R.E.S.S.E.D" => Internally you want to, but if you do it internally and then it manifests itself into reality, all you can say is, "I knew it! I knew this would happen." The person who decided to stay to it and is now making 5k a month as a starter is saying the same thing, but in a lighter sense, "I knew it was possible, I just knew it!" Less stress on him than you right now! So what can I say? Commitment is the first starter for nubie ,are successful hobbyist! What's a hobbyist, people who don't just do art, they work a full time doc's job, and they too have committed to the spiritual relief of art. The artnubie knows nothing about this yet.....
