There is something worse, when you have thoughts that are non productive, but ail you all the time, you get the same amount of it, just nothing can be monetized!

You are talented. Love the line work. Fun to see your sketchbook, thanks for sharing.

Looking sweet! Great perspective and proportion!

Dropping truth bombs 💣 pretty good you crazy fuck 😝 your background in film shines through good work I’m intrigued keep dropping the 💣’s

Can get lost listening to Vinyls while painting or sculpting❤

Yep, vibing

Thank you for sharing. I’m inside this now. Big projects running and my mind always moving

Love your honesty. Great tips.

I believe in your goal. Your not going to fail!

Graffiti is a nice hidden gem in Toronto. I would love to see your art on one of those walls!

Creativity is intelligence having fun :) Great words of wisdom from some wise men including yourself!

Interviewer: so you nuture your creative dream even if it ruins you? Musk/All Artists: yup!!

Not bad, for my first go at it.

Again! I got cut off somehow, arghh. Anyway, regardless I had a good time on this one. Thanks gang.

There's definitely some epic graffiti out there... I love the big art pieces rather than the tags and doodles but the lettering can be beautiful even if its illegible!!

I believe that monkey is Dexter's Cartoon Networks Monkey haha

Whatever camera rig you've got was a good investment. Great vid overall. Thanks, sir. This was cool.

This fool said “I don’t like pulling out” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

You know what? I fucks with you. You seem like a dope ass guy. So focus up. LET’S GET IT!

Great video. You must’ve been learning marketing skills because you have charisma, charm, uniqueness and talent. Good luck.

Video get's cut off, but I was able to get a bit of work done, so it wasn't too bad.

Stream # Lets go!

I know exactly what you mean.. I quite 17 yrs ago.. I am now just dabbling in my old drawing.

I like your videos. Artist also trying. No one explained why a series is important or how many pieces you need for one. I am now working to complete some pieces in my series. While i am not on youtube. I am teaching art and running paint events. Often the same thing happens, because i need to market other parts of this business and stuff. So yeah...

The program you need is called OBS and then you can download Streamer Bot and Speaker bot to get text to speech that way you can work and a bot will read the messages for you :) I will try to make a tutorial and show you how you can set it up :) There is a guy named Haunter in RU-vid with a great tutorial on this :) But I want to make one tutorial focused on artists who stream and cannot read the chat at all :)

I missed it, this is so awesome that you are doing livestreams and then you can use this content to create time lapses and do shorts!

soooooooooooooooooooooo true

I'm 30 and I'm just starting to take my art seriously, its time to take it to another level. There is nothing more satisfying than growing as an artist! Love the green towels on the video! Time to create, lets go!

Amazing content! Make more shorts and you will be grow your channel faster, I will be here supporting you with comments, likes and watch time. Combine both making art and going LIVE on RU-vid with Streamer bot and Speaker bot you can get all your messages read while you work LIVE. That's how I'm growing my channel, trying to build a sweet portfolio, 3d environments for different online marketplaces while connecting to my audience :)

I really appreciate your openness to share your struggles so that others don’t feel alone in their difficulties. I feel lucky to be able to join you in your progress. I’m wishing you the utmost success!

Your art is absolutely amazing! Great advice! and Subscribed :)

Thats exactly the same shit every other RU-vidr would say. Fuck Marketing...Are you an artist or a Buckingham salesman? So what if you don't sell...selling would make you more rich nit a better artist. What's the point? You didn't care for Marketing because its bullshit. Just get a job that pays good and make art in your free time. I would rather stay unknown and never sell rather than sell myself. Are yiu a better artist if yiu put lore time into Marketing? No yiu are a better salesman...so why dontvyiu hi and sell som other stuff if money is your number one concern? If yiu understand marketing yiu would know that...but hey...go ahead..playbthe game...make a uiutube chanel and whatever and tell peoplebthe samenstuff millions of other RU-vid artist told already. I guess in a few years yiu will add another mistake to yiur list. That will be taking money and selling to seriously. I am fed up with this nonsens...her yiu habe a comment...its good for engagement....edit: also uiu don't fuckin look like yiu need money...here I have the most important Mistake most people make: don't take yourself to seroliously.

Thank you for the advise! I'm still in the learning process, so I probably won't be selling anything for the next 6 to 12 months. And it took me over half a year to figure out what I want to create and what my style is🙈. But these are very helpful tips. I just recently started with creating an online presence, but it will take time. Meanwhile I will keep learning and practicing. And I have to create a step by step plan as well. Thanks again, this is really helpful!

Nice video. I'm in the same place you are. I'm trying to sell my art and become full-time. Thanks for the advice.

This is a really valuable video. I'm a 47 year old artist in the process of "unquitting" ... I've made all the same mistakes I just need to get on with it now!!!

Inspiring!! Keep going bro. I know how you feel im 42 trying to do the same.

Sick video man, I’m in for the ride!

I can feel your determination to succeed! Great video! I really hope you will soon accomplish step #17 :)

The average life expectancy for males in Canada is presently 79.8 years. The average age you were given, 73 years, is a global average. Those numbers also don't take into account important factors like lifestyle, diet, level of exercise, socioeconomic status, genetic history, and other limiting factors. Give yourself at least 80 years at least, and if you eat well and exercise regularly you can go on fighting resistance and winning for years to come.

You're exactly right, if you aren't willing to market your art you have no one else to blame for not succeeding at it. An artrepreneur is what you need to be. Nothing sells itself, and there's no shame in learning how to sell a product, especially something you believe in.

Exactly what I needed to hear 🙏✨ Thanks man

Thank you sir

Awesome video❤

We are born with a curse, absolutely. Must create no matter how bad the result, just keep creating. Thank you.

thanks for making this, your stuff is rad, i needed to hear this, congrats on doing it, and wear more hot pint, it looks good on you

You need to tell me where your hidden microphone is located in our home. You are repeating the dinner conversations between my wife and I.

I wish you nothing but the best

Spot on (with one exception)! I was an artist long ago, a marketing career got in the way for 25-ish years also. It wasn't full-on quit, as I was a creative leader doing a lot of design and Illustrator work. But now I'm back to launching my art business (mostly pen and ink, love your stuff brother) and fully grok your points. Except "Gary-Vee." Don't follow the Vee. Most professional/successful marketers dismiss him. Otherwise, rock on.

You’re awesome. Thanks coach 😊

I’m graduating as an illustrator later this year, I’m hoping I can get my own art off the ground! Do you think classes In marketing would be helpful? Or just looking up some resources online to learn would be better 😅 That line about Never quitting really hit me, I’ve had a lot of doubt about being an artist and if I’d make it.. so hearing that really motivated me!! Thank you for the video, from a fellow artist!
