a flash

I know i'm a pop art kind of person :O
I want recognition.
Passive aggressive with my approach to that goal but I know that's what i want.

But I'm having doubts about being a sellout lol.

It's easy to ride on the anime bandwagon and throw out 10000 cute looking anime figurines, take the money and just run the fuck off.
I like jap pop culture, yes, but not enough to get me to want to wholeheartedly jump into their world and swim in it. BUT I CAN. If i want to.

Or I could build up my own pop empire myself. It's going to be hard, since there's no more coattails to ride on. Gonna be up to me and myself only, to make it work. But hey. Jonny wander did it. QoD did it. endling. And I know I'm a lot happier designing stuff that's SELLABLE. Honestly, freelance mattepainting /illu cant earn that much, since they only work on prints and artbooks.

With graduation day looming over my head
it's getting increasingly hard to find a good foothole to grab on before my school disappears from under my feet.

Back to my dilemma.
Easy way out or impossible dream?

I think I'll juggle both for now...
Really need to talk to someone abt this. Someone with experience. WHERE ARE THE TEACHERS WHEN I NEED THEM
