Favorite Piece of Advice

My advice to artists who wish to take their passion and turn it into a full-time job is to find their identity and form a follower base around their strengths, rather than molding it around the preferences or trends of contemporary culture. That said, as an artist there is no right way of putting yourself out there, so try to figure out which parts of your expression you can use to secure an income, because that’s the gateway to a sustainable life in this field. Sometimes, we have to compromise and become a bit more marketable to be able to fund our bigger personal projects. Other times, those projects can be funded by our following or other third parties. Unless you have some sort of financial backing already, you have to become business-savvy.
