What do we all do for a living?, by hobbs on Mar 26, 2018 18:16:52 GMT 1, I'm writing an odd novel at the moment, whilst creating artwork and sketches which will probably make me absolutely nothing.
You know how it is.
As of September I hope to have a regular job alongside my "hobby".
I've never bought a Banksy, or other person's art, except minor pieces which cost a quid plus postage from various alternative forums.

Good luck with the book mate.. I have been (trying) to write a book for a while. It's a kind of a black comedy story about kids growing up. Now i have a family, two kids, busy job... it's so hard to find time. I have been thinking lately maybe a good thing if we don't win a few tenders in work and they make me redundant with a nice payout. I can then concentrate on the book full time wife would hate it and I'd probably end up drinking to much wine in the process (during the day)👍

What do we all do for a living?, by hobbs on Mar 27, 2018 15:05:11 GMT 1, Aye, have two myself, lone parent. I can only really get anything done when they're in school. Home is too jumbled otherwise.
I take what moments I can get. Ditto with my 'art'.

Sometimes I'm having to think of a concept for a global campaign, other days I'm literally flowing copy into a template lol. It varies. I freelance though so get pulled into different advertising agencies to lend a hand.

What do we all do for a living?, by AoT Framing on Aug 27, 2018 10:42:29 GMT 1, Well, struggle to pay the rent and have yet to make a living out of it, turn up and sit in a deserted space all day, agree with the few folk that do come in how amazing the art on show is that they never buy, organise events that nobody can be bothered to come to, spend a fortune on advertising which leads to nothing. Distribute costly leaflets and brochures that nobody reads. Wait for people to come back to me, but never do. Waste hours posting and boosting on social media to no avail. Hoping it isn't too hot because people hit the beach, hoping it's not raining keeping them away. (although nobody comes in anyway). Not sure whether I'm foolishly optimistic or totally insane. Welcome to the world of running an art gallery!

I'm not famous, though, just a guy with high cholesterol from eating too much steak and BBQ.
