What is it like being an artist? Is there a secure paycheck and how do you become one?

I guess I don't really know how becoming an artist that makes art for a living works. Do you just submit things to art shows and hope it sells?

How do I become/get a job as an Illustrator?

I have always loved art and drawing growing up and my dream career is to become a graphic novelist/cartoonist. It would be cool to publish my own graphic novels or illustrate other's books but how do I do that? I also would like to know where character designers or concept artists work and what art software do I need to learn to create my art in those career fields?

How can I get a business off the ground?

My parents have always encouraged me (14) to have my own business, so I when I suggested that I sell my art, they were super excited. However, due to our extremely busy lives, the idea of me owning a small business was thrown to the side for at least a year. I want to start a business, but I have no clue what to do. I have so many options, but I’m not sure which would be the most profitable. I could crochet pieces and sell them, I could make digital stickers and sell them on shirts or sweatshirts, or I could even hand-draw art pieces and sell them that way. The problem is, the website in which I plan to sell on is Etsy, which is SUPER competitive for small businesses focused on selling art. I’m not sure which path would provide the best profit or which path would interfere with my schedule the least. I need help, and fast!

When is a good time to hire a rep or publicist or rep ? How do you go about finding one worth their salt?

Hi, I'm looking to get in more galleries with my work. I've had luck with my rep in NY, they even took my work to Art Miami ( Basel week), but really need more locations to sell. In-person viewing is really the only way i sell art. I'm looking for advice on where to find a coach or rep, or publicist -- i guess I'm searching for the next steps in my career building and we never covered this kind of stuff when i got my MFA.

What is the best way to find job opportunities for things revolving around art?

Artists are not in high demand like doctors are and so it may be very hard for those people to find jobs.

How do I proceed when I have a lot of possible careers but not enough experience in any to work full-time?

I realized late into my college experience that I didn't want to work a math job at all so I finished out my Math degree and am now struggling to find a full-time job I feel qualified for. I have a list of 5 or so potential careers (Including but not limited to: Singer-Songwriter, Writer, Naturalist, Photographer, Artist), but I don't feel like I'm at the point where I could pursue any of them full-time. I'm wondering if I should just get a math job and explore the other options in my free-time, if I should just find any job related to my current interests, or if I should put off getting a full-time job until I get a little clearer in my objective. I'm alright on cash for now, I'd just prefer not to live with my parents for longer than I have to. I'm most likely overthinking this and you probably would need some more information to give a solid path forwards, but whatever. I'm here to listen. Thanks for all your help!

What can I expect entering the art field as a newbie when I graduate college?

After I finish college I’m going to start entering the art field. I want to produce my art if a bigger scale and be featured in museums someday soon. I believe in my skills and capability to adapt to new situations, and I pride myself in being a good communicator with people in business settings and socially. I would appreciate any and all advice for starting out as a “newbie” in the art field. Specifically on apprenticeship offers, graphic design or illustrator jobs, Disney experience, and being an independent artist. Thank you.

I’m always looking to improve not only my life and business, but also many other things in the world. When I see something I wish to improve I ask myself what I can do about it. If there is something to be done then I take action. And if not, I let it go.?
