The problem with not making money isn't always because it is the primary motive. When you see others making money hand over fist, for art that looks like it was done by a blindfolded three year old by with a broken crayon, You feel like you're just spinning your wheels working so hard to hone your skills. Money translates to recognition, and /or validation. And isn't that what we really want? To know that what we've worked so hard on is appreciated?
@@airbrushdungeon thanks for commenting. You are right that money is often just a symbol for validation and recognition. It also is a harsh reality that we need to survive, and it’s hard to be creative when we are stressed about survival. While getting supportive feedback is great it’s not why we make art. We make it because we love making art. But I get you… we need to also be better at “business mode”, which is why I talk about developing the entrepreneurial side in other videos and will continue to in more to come.
