> fret over some nonsense about the 'economics' of art,

I mean, rent doesn't pay itself. Maybe it will one day but I'm not expecting it in my lifetime. Leisure hobby's go by the wayside as the economy does.

I have art I want to display, but I also have a family to care for. The best way to optimize that is to do art as a job. And if it sacrifices my cred as an "artist", so be it. My goal is simply to share what I like, and the steps to make what I like are a neat challenge as well. I don't seek prestige in that traditional artists' sense

>You can find this world aligned with your tastes

Mine's in video games, so I'm still stuck at a screen for now. I do want to one day visit those video game mueseums, but it's out of my budget for now (darn economy!).
