>>7715459Enough to pay off my car in a year so that's pretty great
>>7715482But you could be making 10k a year, if you made another 5k drawing. That's leaving money on the table anon.

>>7715459no one commissions me and I spend all my money paying other artists
>>7715459a grand total of zero monies, drawing porn disgusts me and sfw commissions are dead.
>>7715459Zero. I have a real job, art is just a hobby.
>>7715459about tree fiddy
>>7715459Each year is different, worst case scenario 12-15k$ best case scenario 28-38k$Doing game art environmental art or character animation.
60k drawing pornPlatform fees and taxes takes like 12k or it though
>>7716224Do you supplement with a part-time job?
>>7716234I live in eastern europe, the income tax here is 10%+400$ for healthcare/year500$ is enough for me to live comfortably so I don't have to get an IRL job.
>>7716240I almost feel like art dying in the west has to do a lot with only retard failsons having the financial security to do it.
>>7715619>200k in debt from art actually.Art School?
>>7715459I make nothing on art but to be fair my productivity sucked this year
>>7716408Yes
>>7715459So far 120 dollars for one comm this year...
>>7716372Just move to a poor country, work remotely doing art and ur gonna be one of the richest, is that simple.
i-i do it for passion not for m-money....
>>7715459two shawarma and one coke
>>7715459a couple wanted to pay me for a portrait and I said I'll do it for free.I am an idiot... guess that's why I felt more attracted to art instead of making it big in STEM.With canvases and paints I'd probably be at -500€ minimum
>>7715619Calarts?

>>7716408>200K>For Art SchoolTaking on debt for a Uni course that isn't almost guaranteed to get you a job, should have an age limit, like you need to be at least 25 or something. This shit feels like it takes advantage of young people's naivety or lack of maturity to make money, and it's fucking gross.
>>7715619negative debt is actually just positive money, isn't it?
>>7717329I've been thinking about this a lot recently as someone somewhat in school and how your kinda just pressured to get a degree even if it wont get you anywhere just because "having the paper is a benefit". And the whole thing just feels like a generational scam where each generation that got scammed pushes the next deeper into to justify a sunk cost fallacy. Young adults shouldn't have to force themselves into debt to reasonably start the next stage of life
>>7717640But they learn so much important stuff in school, like indigenous science and groomology.
>>7715459negative $1000-ish. i don't sell my art but i aggressively commission my peers, being an HVACR tech pays well enough.
>>7717640The thing is it WAS (and actually still is) a benefit, but since everybody's getting the same advice to go to college there's a lot of college graduates competing for the same openings and a lot of shitty colleges handing out degrees to accommodate the demands. It still generally beats only having a high school diploma.
