Amen to every word above
The worst thing about being an artist is trying to advertise your art,
I feel like we alternate between urchin begging on the corner
“please sir, reblog my post sir, I made a new drawing sir, please take a micro second just a teeny bit of your time sir,,, I spent forty hours on this sir”
And feeling like the world’s most annoying Influencer
“BUY MY MERCH. IT’S ALL I TALK ABOUT. DERAILING EVERYTHING TO ADVERTISE MYSELF BECAUSE IM GREEDY AND SELF INFLATED”
I wish that there was another way to show my art to people or advertise my books 😞
