I thougt painters could do ok?  There's illustration (you get around 1500.00 per
publication) and ther is portraiture which pays very well or doing outsider art.
There is parties drugs and being a bit fucked up that may get you into the gag
one day.

What counts is good quality and having a story to tell is what makes an Artist
professional.
