New artists, NEVER work for exposure I get reposted by big-name accounts all the time, and honestly? It doesn't make much of a difference. Chances are, that famous person's audience won't even care about your art, and you'll gain like 2 followers at most, lol.

I had a feeling that "exposure" is a big sham. Thanks for proving me right. 😏

100% I pay the asking price plus tip. The art has value. It takes hours to make it and it takes years to hone your craft. I honestly think if they spent some time hunched over a tablet screen drawing they might get some perspective but I doubt it. You just cannot reason with stupid.

Paying for ads on social networks also only brings results if you invest a lot of money, save your 50 bucks and buy a pizza

Exposure is a thing people die of, not a form of payment.
