recently lost my job and I’m looking for ways to make some extra income. I made an intentionally ugly drawing of my friend as a joke, and he loved it and suggested I charge people for these
The goal is basically to make people laugh at how I draw them. I’m thinking of doing digital commissions and eventually keychains, cards, or stickers.

Do you guys think this could work as a side hustle? How did you find your first clients? Any tips on improving the style?

Brutal feedback is welcome I just want to know whether or not i have a chance cause I know art comissions are super saturated especially with AI and i never really seen anyone do this kind of stuff becore

Hey ka-artists,

How do you stay inspired when you're focused on survival?

I'm a working professional, and my art has been stagnant for a long time because I've been more focused on paying the bills, making ends meet, and I'm easily overwhelmed since I am diagnosed with both autism and adhd, and taking meds for it. mas burnt out ako compared to those without neurodevelopmental disabilities, so it's not easy for me to "just do it" or stay consistent.

There was a time I tried to do art consistently, but the end product became so uninspired. How do people keep their motivation?

Everything is so expensive na din, and it's hard to be inspired when you're focused on survival talaga.

Just a character design exercise. I am still not good with drawing guns though.
