Yeah, you’re probably right. I still see plenty of artists that are able to scrape by on a combination of comissions and furry porn, but I think the bigger problem generally is just that, as wealth inequality grows and cost of living gets worse and worse, which doesn’t seem to be like it’s gonna be something that gets better globally because of climate change, I don’t think the consumer market is going to be able to step up and substitute some of this billboard work for “actual” artistic work, or, more free artistic work. I think otherwise, that might’ve been the case, more.
The efficiency gains, what would otherwise let people save more money to spend on things like artists, are all being sucked up by rich dudes, and not your average joe. Sucks omega hard.
