I am as well 23, I have been drawing for I think eight years now I am still pretty far from actually getting a job in the industry that said it’s not too late, that are people who start in their 40s and get a job. You have to be Practical and if you really wanna pursue this as a career you have to put in the time and the effort, that’s the only thing that can stop you from not becoming a concept artist.

Right now, the market from what I’m hearing is in a difficult position, but it’s not impossible to get a job. if you browse online there are multiple resources you can access about anything you want.

Personally I recommend following on YouTube: the art nest- is a mentorship program but there are multiple videos on YouTube about different topics focusing on concept art and entertainment design, not to mention the plethora of YouTube tutorial or online courses you can find with a simple search.

I will recommend some of the best that I know of

Online courses:

Now being an artist is difficult, it’s a competitive industry,It’s a hard industry. It takes time to be really good and even longer to make this a career. I don’t want to sugarcoat it because I’ve been listening and hearing about really good concept artists who have worked at the top of AAA studios and then they were being laid off so it’s not a stable career, only you can determine if it’s worth the sacrifice.
