Ep. 6: Why Switching Careers Isn't "Giving Up" On Your Art
Manage episode 301624806 series 2942086
Busting the myth of the "successful art career".
Most of us have been conditioned with this story: When I am making a significant portion of my income from art, when I can show on my tax return that x percentage of my job revenue is from my artwork, then I am truly an artist. Anything less is just "hobbyist". Many artists are turning away from that story, as it is damaging, elitist and not realistic. It is also largely due to the way Capitalism shapes how artists must operate on the market.
