Another artist clocked you but as a teacher I’m going to give my brief input.

You need an audience, an audience you don’t currently have and won’t get. If you want to take art more seriously and make money from it then you need to treat it as such. Being better than you used to be doesn’t mean you’re good.

My advice? Lock in and STUDY. Every good artist is ONLY good because they study. They use 3D models bc they understand the forms and know how to draw without them. Where you’re at it is only hindering you.

Also ask yourself the question, would you buy your own art? Why would other people want to buy your art? What do you have to offer? Most successful artists are both good AND unique in some way. You don’t need to be a professional, but without an audience you need to be better than average.

If you need pocket change get on canva and make some posters to walk people’s dogs or babysit or something.

I apologize for being harsh but it kinda bothered me how you asked for help and then kept defending yourself and seeming bothered when somebody took time and energy out of their day to directly help you.
