ay up again!

is everyone here making money from there paintings? if so can u tell me how 2 do this?

I have spoken 2 some artists around and they tell me to make money through painting, paint what people want 2 buy!

but i dont want to paint what people want 2 buy!
i want 2 paint what i want!
The sorts of things i paint arn't the sorts of things people hang in their living rooms...

i dont want 2 paint "wallpaper" paintings that people buy becuase the colours compliment the decore of a room...

i want 2 paint things that make people stop and look...
and then look again...

and then think...
ok.. this guy has issus!

because thats who i am!

is anyone else like me?

Nez
