RE: Working for Free is not easy
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
An artist almost doesn't have a choice. They are compelled to express themselves through their art. If there is a financial pay off then they have a bonus. That can lead to working for free, yet really one is working for self expression no?
Over the summer my habit has become posting every day about an adventure taken on this year. Although it may not be considered art, it is an expression of what is going on in my life. Even though my intent is not seeking financial rewards, it has been notice-able how the HIVE rewards on my posts have increased. Although it does not add up to much it seems a sign that consistently putting out content will eventually show results.
Your content is always a welcome addition to my feed. ✌️&💛
I get your point but when you have been trying to also make your art your career then it is a little bit different I would. I am glad you still enjoy my stuff. And sadly I can tell that the consistency thing it never worked for me anywhere, including HIVE! But I guess I am getting the "REAL" experience of what is to be alive as a creative person. The suffering and struggle is real. Maybe in centuries people will be buying my photos for fortunes and talking about how miserable I was and how hard my life was when I was still alive in the world LOLOLOL
Just don't cut off an ear! 😐
I'll top it off and cut both lol
