Exactly my point.
The job of doing street art may just end there.
As a stepping stone, it needs a much higher standard. As an education, it is great, but it is hard to take money for less than your best. I have had suggestions to work on demos from life, and that sounds good but I want MY model. If I hang a shingle that has a price and a product, I need to be able to PRODUCE at the level and speed expected.

Lonny has done that and very successfully. I wonder what his input is here?

How fast do you work? What is your standard? How do you charge? AND do you work from life or photos?

I AM using art as entertainment, not marketing, and I am coming to the realization it must knit into a clear plan. I have the energy of a humming bird but I do need to keep feeding the landlord!

This is a very relevant thread for me right now, thanks for the conversation.
