I searched for “hobby artist” because I have been struggling with this exact issue, feeling like I can’t enjoy art if I’m not planning to make it my career but still feeling guilty for not doing art & working for hours every day. Thank you for posting this & sharing your thoughts, it was exactly what I needed to hear!

I like this video. I see many big art KZitemrs only talk about art as if everyone wants to sell it. I've had before people asking commissions from me in real life and I did a few but it makes art very stressful while for me art is almost like therapy, to have less stress and I enjoy doing what I come up with and not having to stress if it will be my best piece or anything like that.

I'm glad you enjoyed this video! Art has always been something I enjoyed throughout my life, but it wasn't until I joined KZitem that I considered making it a job. There's nothing wrong with it being a hobby. :) Enjoy your art!

I randomly found this video when I typed into youtube art as a hobby. I wasnt sure what I was looking for, I just knew I wanted to find someone who made art as a hobby instead of a job. But this video was exactly what I was looking for, it makes me feel a lot better about my core values and my reason for making art a couple days a week. I have no intention of doing it as a job and I never want to, and you make me feel so much better about that. So thankyou, thank you for making this video and sharing it with the world. It means a lot

Thanks for this video. I guess we are similar in the sense that we have multiple interests and a profession different than those. I used to feel bad for being a Jack of all trades. But now I have accepted that trait and I allow myself to dabble in and out of my hobbies as I please. I felt better to see that there are people like me who are comfortable in just pursuing the hobby at their own pace and okay to be a mediocre as long as it gives happiness. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts.

This is the type of video I needed to watch 🥺as a begginer artist (as a hobby) I feel so frustrated when my art doesn't come out the way I imagined it and when I see other artists online, so perfect, it diminishes my confidence even more... this video was so comforting💛 and the beginning when you erased the sketch, that took me by surprise because I usually don't see that 😄💖

I love that this video exists, it's reassuring to me as someone that studied art in school and is interested in training to be really good at it for personal stuff but still never, ever wants it as a job 😅 It took me a long time to build confidence as a hobbyist because yeah...you look things up online and seemingly everyone into art that posts about it is a professional, giving advice on how to quit your job and go freelance, etc, it's hard not to get caught in the stream. But thing is I really like my stable "real job" and would never quit it. I definitely went through the "late stage capitalism" thing too and tried to hustle for commissions etc. but marketing takes up way too much of my free time and isn't even fun, and doing paid stuff for people actually affects my art and overall enjoyment :/

With all the amazing stuff we see online, sometimes it makes it feel like anything left than perfect isn’t ok.

Getting followers as an artist is something that I have always struggled with SO much!! I don’t have very many followers at all. But thing is, since art is merely a hobby of mine and I’m not looking to make it into a career, at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter that I don’t have many followers. If I was trying to turn it into a job then I would probably be so stressed about that. Building a career out of it just wouldn’t be fun for me, plus I don’t like drawing art for people when I don’t fully enjoy what I’m drawing. You have to do that though from time to time when doing commissions.

That is all very true, and all very familiar to me as well! It's a valid reason for not wanting to make art into a career, and it sounds like the right choice for you, at least at this point in your life. Thank you for watching, and taking the time to share. :)

I want to be happy with making a compromise by focusing on original ideas in professional artwork, such as Marina Nanami someday.

I really really really appreciate you making this video. I was really stressing about whether I should make art as a job or hobby and getting frustrated at how I haven’t gotten to where I want to be as an artist. But I enjoy making comics as a hobby and if I made money that would be nice but I’m happy just doing it as a hobby and improving at my own rate. I’m so glad to know that that’s okay and I thank you for it🥹❤️
