How people think I get shit done VS How it actually is.
Some people may think that I have a lot of assistants and other
artists creating my work for me, but the truth is, it's just plain hard
work by yours truly!
That's not to say I don't get help, I do. I pay people to put my art on shirts, frame my works and print my comics. My family supports me financially from time to time, my friends and other artists support me either through moral support or by buying my comics and artworks. My girlfriend gives me good advice and inspires me to keep making wonderful works. And of course I pray to God.

But from creating and editing videos, painting artworks, making shirt
designs and promotions, marketing them online, creating and managing
websites and pages, drawing comic book pages, inking, editing, layout,
proofreading and conceptualizing them, writing poems and short stories, I
basically do it by myself.
There are a lot of us artists who aren't sponsored by companies or patreons, who have gone full time to fulfill their dream of creating art for a living. Artists who are independent and are just trying to make good shit even though life as an artist is tough shit most of the time.
But I say, after the struggle I believe we can break free from the shackles of obscurity and being misunderstood. All we have to do is to strive harder, support each other, appreciate great works, make room for improvement, learn new things, and be positive that it'll soon pay off. Most of all we have to have patience, there is no such thing as an overnight success. Nothing is really easy, but it's not impossible to succeed.

The art is the artist
-Art & Fear a Book by David Bayles and Ted Orland
Vincent Van Gogh is one of the most misunderstood artists of his time, his art was never really appreciated as much and sadly he was driven into insanity and eventually took his own life. Why do we neglect artists and their art when most of these brilliant people are still alive? Maybe because genius is really ahead of its time?
Then I say, let's learn from that and support artists and anyone who is actually moving one's ass and does something creative before they take their own life and we lose another genius.
In short...
PLEASE SUPPORT US ARTISTS! ^_^
