Welcome to Steemit! It might take you a few weeks or more to build up a following/reputation, but don't give up! I have seen a lot of people say that if you can make it for one year, you may not get rich, but you can definitely supplement your income.

Really, I am more in it for the ability to share my art with others who appreciate it...and Make friends and help each other out.

Your work is awesome! I look forward to seeing more.
