Award-winning digital artist - classically trained but hated drinking the brush water.
And it went live! It's adorable. The drawings were done by my wife who is a self-avowed "not an artist". Now she wants to buy a capybara.

I had to have a third person hold her from rotating out of perspective.
The chains are still hanging in the middle of my studio, but the other paintings I intended to follow this one are still in my head waiting to come out. 2/2

Nothing gets better if you just keep your head down forever.
Things are as bad as they are now because this is historically how artists have coped with industry conditions. You either get lucky and hit it big or you quietly bow out when you can no longer afford this very bad situation

If I can get faster at this stuff, I'll be able to work on my own pieces again soon.
But a lot of these are low-dopamine and kinda tedious, so it's a struggle to stay away from even fiddling with musical playlists or doomscrolling through social media. Or updating social media for no reason.

Now I'm working on a posthumous set of art designs to make a late artist's work usable in other projects for her family.
Next I'll take a set of art abandoned by another artist and the ai creations the author originally used as inspiration to paint interior work for a children's book.
