The Art Chain! Let's support artists in need!
One of my biggest goals right now is to make artists feel with every fiber of their being that they can totally, absolutely and joyfully make a living out of it. Nevermind what anyone else says about art not being a real job. what are movies then? What are books? What are videogames?
In my years as an artist I always see "shoutouts" come and go: emergency commissions, bills unpaid, jobs lost, ill pets and family members, scams...
We can't help artists like those one by one, all by ourselves, but we can certainly put a grain of sand for all of them.
What saddens and yet, excites me the most about these artist shoutouts is that they realize that in the end, doing what they love does provide income and comfort, I wish more people could come to this conclusion before they ended up doing something they hate only because they're not confident enough in their art!
For this reason, I'm opening The Art Chain
The Art Chain will be collecting donations from everyone who wishes to support artists in need through the internet, of all ages, races or minoritary groups. The Art Chain will support all digital/traditional artists in general! But will always tend first to those who are going through difficult situations and will use the donated money to commission as many artists as possible at the end of each milestone!
Your support will be noticed by our favorite Orange
The Art Chain will be "sponsored" by your local Orange friend and Daily Gratitude will now be in charge of promoting it, for it was gratitude what started this, as well as inspiration from a close friend who overcame a very difficult situation through a shoutout.
There’s still a lot to polish and a neatly-drawn step-by-step sheet is on its way to better clarify how The Art Chain will work, but I highly appreciate people who have been donating right from the start, there’s currently only me and my friend watching over this project, but we are very open for more kindness.
As always, thank you very much!
