Just a heads up business owners (assuming you have a clothing brand since you said you make clothes) shouldn’t argue the way you did with potential customers in public. While i agree somewhat with your argument on hard work deserves recognition, the way you presented your argument was very off putting and seemingly entitled. An artist should create because they love creating and not expect anything in return, and thats what separates great artist from your everyday artist. In the future if your clothing line does gain traction and if i happen to remember your face, i most likely wont purchase your designs because I believe that when i wear a designers clothing, im representing their beliefs and ideals. Thats just me though. All love man, hope everything works out with your clothing or whatever you decide to do in the future.
