RE: An artist must be starving, and other social myths:)
Haven't encountered any of those ones for a while XD Though I have in the past had people trying to weasel free work by whining about how "it'll be great for exposure!" I only give away free work when I really like someone! XD
As for starving well in my case I probably would be as I wouldn't make enough money from art by itself, I have completely the wrong personality type to be promoting and advertising and I help people entirely too much XP
Most of the issues I get is still people thinking that the computer does it all for me, even in this day and age XD
So true! Especially about "computer does it all for me". Damn, sometimes when I heard it from closest people (like mother-in-law, for example), I even brought them to my home, gave them stylus and opened an empty canvas in Photoshop. And settled the brush I usually use for sketching. And said "Go on, make the computer to do everything instead of you":)
