  • Right! Even where you can monetize your hobby, if you’re not in it for the sake of your own personal passion, what’s the point?

    Great art comes from passion and artistic integrity, not from trying to slap together some garbage to make a buck. If you happen to make money in the process, awesome, but if that’s your whole motivation it’s going to come across in your work and put a bit of a stink on the whole endeavor.

    There’s a world of difference between art being enabled by commerce and art being created for the money. The second is self-defeating.
