Did anybody here, anybody at all, transitioning from one career into a career in art successfully?
Whether it's digital or traditional.

Monetary value isn't my biggest concern really (I'm used to being broke as shit so that's not going to change), I'm just interested in how people can make such a drastic shift in career and expertise.

Was it a major shock to you? Was there any hesitantation on your end and how'd you overcome it?

Any feedback at all is appreciated :)
