Artists ALWAYS need a second job.

I knew that I couldn't get rich doing what I enjoy (tinkering and such) so I'm taking a graphics design diploma - it exposes me to a lot of contacts, the money is fairly easy since I'm naturally talented in it, and it supports my hobbies.

I generally don't have to pay for supplies as most of my work is done at my art lessons, where the supplies are provided for me. Although I wouldn't consider it so much Art Lessons as...Art Guidance...When I first started I had my hand held all the way through a work (figuratively speaking, of course), but after awhile, since I've progressed a great deal in my skills, I kind of do it on my own mostly, with little tips and a little bit of guidance from my teacher. =) It's great.
