meet japanese girl in nyc. we both carry sketch pads.

>hey you draw?

yea thats my hobby too!

>hobby? no, that my job-aru.

cool, do you have an ig?

>yes prease forrow me.

girl makes enough money to live alone in manhattan from her art. must be really good.

>look through her ig

she traces. every single picture on her page is traced and poorly colored. sometimes she mixes pictures from different perspectives and it looks horrible.

>she's not deceiving people. they actually pay her to trace their photos poorly on purpose.

i work 2 jobs, have a masters degree and draw from memory every single day. can barely afford to live in nj. no one likes my art. have never made a penny from it.
