Let me tell ya something, being an artist is not an easy life especially in fine art. To make things short, if you end up ever selling your fine art on the streets as a way to begin your so called career to greatness in the field of design, never quit your day job. Believe me, oh it is possible to make a liveing selling your art but you need to be makeing more money at selling your art than you would with your day job and thats a fact. If you make more money selling your art than your day job, then you can quit your day job and go full time with your art.

A little piece of advice from a famious artist I talked to who lives and works in Hawaii as a fine artist. His name is Brian Marshal. Amazeing painter!

He gave me his book about succeeding in the art world. And this book centers its attention more on the business side of art vending than on the skills side. Great read though and lots of good advice to aspireing artist such as myself.
