Man I’m so sorry to hear that. It sounds like this has been your norm for a while, so what can you do to help take steps towards building the life you want? Since jobs aren’t working out for you, what can you do to improve your situation and build the life those employers cannot offer you?

@@TheArtMentor I need time. If I could find someone with the good faith to give me a YEAR to study and improve my skills, and I didn't have this debt hanging over my head, I could make something happen. Right now I am trying too save money to buy a drawing course, and pay my uncle enough to shut him up for a minute.

@@TheArtMentor It's great! It's a small company that is creating a tabletop rpg, it's a good start. Your advice to find my own niche and to actively look for jobs in reddit and deviantart, pricing my art and organizing your portfolio to attract the right clients got me the job! Thanks!

One thing that has been helping me to not only draw but also draw giving my best is having a personal project and setting a deadline. I gave myself 2 weeks to finish each page of my graphic novel. 26 pages total by the end of the year. But I have been walking with my tablet everywhere I go and being doing a page per week! It works wonders!

Thank you much for your video. It tells me that I am on the right path. However long that path is. I already set a minimum time each week to fit art in. I broke it down to 2 hours a day where I have time to myself. Does that time get interrupted also? Yes but I try to find the time someplace else. Art for me is my get away from life at times. My day job tries to take up a lot of my time. But I come home from work and put myself in front of my drawing table and try and get something done. That time helps me survive life.
