Choose a theme. Something you like make an artbook of it.

Be it LOTR, an anime, a Vidya or ancient stories. Has anyone ever illustrated the epic of Gilgamesh? Or the battles in Nordic sagas?

A few did, but certainly not in your own style.

barguefaggotry and its consequences has been a disaster for art kind

Nigga why did you go to an atelier if you don't want to paint

>Goes to an atelier to paint
>Work hard painting
>Becomes good at painting
>Wtf do I do with this pointless painting skill

Try closing all your windows and inhale all the oil paint you have.

Are you guys actually real world retarded or something? This is like hearing an adult ask why we drink water or eat food, it's that level of fucking infantile stupidity.
Why did YOU learn these skills? Outside of mummy and daddy forcing you to learn art, you must have had goals? Even if it was just for the sake of a hobby and having fun, then continue doing that. FUCK!

And sadly, ateliers don't teach you that, those require specialized schools.

Nice trips but Bargue and Gerome never started academicism it dates back to the rococo.

Based retards.
You already have more self awareness than 90% of graduates.
First things first, don't do what Caesar Santos and other people did and turn to contemporary art, "modern" art by realists is always the worst, it requires a very specific education and you don't have the time for that.
For two you have two choices:
Modern ateliers have turned into a pyramid scheme just like regular art schools, and you can buy back into it at the 2nd layer now, at least I HOPE you can, by getting jobs as teachers and scamming other idiots into buying into it. This is why 99% of modern realists do teaching, you never see a single one who isn't doing a class, every single one of them has a "Workshops" page and "Teaching" page.
If you can't find a job at any currently existing institute, learn Hindi or Nigerian and go there.
Alternatively: Make your own paintings and sell.
This is a novel concept that most modern atelier graduates cannot do because there is no longer composition tests based off imagination like the Beaux Art had, but if you can force yourself, after years of self education, you might finally be able to paint more than 2 people in one painting, and finally have an actual painting to sell instead of an oil study.
Or option 3: Portrait artist.
Just keep up the grind maybe you'll eventually be good enough to get hired by Jeffry Epstein 2 to paint his portrait and make a living.

>This all sounds just terrible
Yes. It's time to admit society was right, the arts are a useless field, it's a shame AI will fail at replacing us, because in an ideal world humans would hate arts and be emotionless tech bug men people.

You draw what you want to draw
Or if you're not, you watch other people draw the same way people watch other people play sports.

By the way, if a skillset is transferable, it's not useless. I only do digital. But recently I had to paint the gate and without even thinking painting them become natural like being able to complete it faster than my coworker could
