Mike Mantis, one has to be _really_ persistent. Like, really! I fight the "shame" of living with my parents at 25 everyday, but I'm making videos that use everything I know of Cinema - and it's so worth it now, it will be even more when the future pays off. Besides, what's a good life with no struggles?

@@Daniel-Rosa. I feel you Daniel I'm a photographer myself not full time but it's always a blessing to have work and make money with my Passion. I just find it fascinating that this beautiful art or your creations can pay for your lifestyle. And you should never feel bad about living with your parents as long as you're helping them and you're not a burden

Thanks, man ^^

Amor fati

@@tombojumbo I've lived in Norway, it's dark and cold most of the year and they have to drink to tolerate their nature. Just saying anywhere can be magical or a nightmare, depending on where your head is. I would prefer to live on a tropical island. Warm and lovely breezes.

Tsetsi do all Japanese artists paint the same?

Calm down. Those birds are clearly taken care of and loved.

She needs only a living doing what she loves, not "big bucks".

@@savedfaves and I'm sure she has that luxury. Unfortunately most don't... so Karsten is coming from a practical point of view.

Hey Karsten! I do all of my drawings in ink on paper and color digitally, you can check out my process on my channel! I sometimes sell originals, and also do commissions. :)

@Muchogris Thank you! I've always wanted to do something for MTG! Got to do a piece for Diablo 3 a year ago, but having one of my pieces on a card would be so cool, definitely submitting!
