    For some reason people in art believe they don’t have to compete like every other individual creating a business

    If you think art is about selling a product, what’s the point of being alive?

      Why should art then be considered a profession? It could be for the talented ones. For everyone else its a hobby.

      Just like so many people doing basic woodworking at home. Its a hobby and not a profession. Even though the most skilled ones has it as one.

      Seeing a guy getting government founding totaling 3 million USD for shooting paint out his ass makes me clench around my tax money.
