This is why I never really tried. I thought I could sell art but it's a grind and political. It seems like either you can work constantly to sell art to fund making art or half ass it at some corporate job, make a ton of money and make art?

People seem to make a decent living doing furry art commissions. Looks like far less grind than other kinds of art and also not corporate.

I dunno, the 500th commission of Bandit and Lucky’s Dad doing *censored* probably gets pretty tiresome as well.
