>>4070924Anon, commissions are basically how artists hava made a living since artists exist. In fact, most of the "masterworks" we see at museums and shit were commision pieces once. All of them. Da Vinci's works, his paintings and stuff, were all commisions. The thing is, back in pre-postmodern times, millionaires fancied the idea of having a few big name artists as their employees, basically. They believed that paying for art gave them some sort of status above other ignorant fucks who were wasting money on banal shit like women, war, or some inane speech about building walls around your country to keep people out of it. These days though, people commision shit to masturbate, mostly. It's like they don't know they can just hire an escort for that.
