Question: Starving Artist!. How do you afford supplies!?
I am a starving artist!. I am having trouble affording supplies and classes!. What are some creative ideas on how to deal with this!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Try barter!. I used to barter my art work and/or talent for art supplies!. I got a 200!.00 set of rembrant pastels for 10!.00 and a portrait!. I would trade extra oil paints for those colors of paint I needed!. Get a job at an art supply store!. You normally get 20% off current stock AND discount stock!. If you are going to college, go to the financial aid office and tell them you need more money for supplies!. There are often grants available for art supplies and/or starving art students!.
