>>5965937>I've heard horror stories about outsourced workloads where people were burnt out of art forever, does this actually happen?Yeah, it definitely does.
Not quite the same thing, but I know an illustrator who never draws for fun anymore and has come to view art as only work and gave up on bringing any personal projects to fruitin; like an enthusiastic kid with dreams and aspirations being forged into a mere tool for clients...
I also know someone who wanted to go into arts, but chose a different job, because of money and such and then stopped drawing completely, because there just wasn't enough "time", but it was really a lack of energy.
I'm sure there are also success stories for either scenarios, but in the end, it really depends on your persistence and love for the craft.
Not everyone will work well under the same conditions nor amount of pressure, there are always individual differences that can make the difference between trying again and giving up for good.
I'd reckon that any artist would suffer in bad working conditions, which in turn, makes the art suffer.
Long hours, for an increasing workload of materials you may not have any passion for draining your energy, creativity and drive?
Some people can do it, some can't; depends on what sort of person you are and how which conditions in a given environment affect you.
