What kind of job/career would be best for me to have while doing art on the side?
Posted by brian in Career HELP on Aug 28th, 2010 | one response


I love art, sooo much. Art has been my entire life. But now I’m a senior in high school, I need to start thinking about college and my major. But I don’t think I want to do art for the rest of my life. I mean to make a living. I know it is very difficult to make a good living in almost all forms of art, and I want a stable job that I can also enjoy. I kind of want to do art on the side in my free time, maybe sell things on etsy and what not. But I have no idea what else I could do for a career/job that I would like. I love fashion, hair styling, music and art. Even with these things I love, I still have no idea what to do. Are there any artists out there with a similar problem? I would really like some help.
Please and thank you. <3

    I have the same dilemma. I’m in high school as well and I don’t want to do art for the rest of my life as a living either. Hairstyling and the such doesn’t seem like such a bad job. Go to beauty school, get a job, tah dah.

    Well, hope you have better luck than I.
