Art Trades?
3 years ago
Do people do art trades any more? Or have the fallen out of fashion?
I was talking to a friend a few weeks back and he said that some people had gotten very 'if you want my art, you have to pay, I don't want your art in return' about them. I haven't done them in years as I simply haven't had the time and to start considering doing them again and hear that is a bit disheartening. (Although, I do get it. People should be paid fairly for their artwork, especially if they're using their skills to make a living).
I'm not sure if/when I would be opening them again. I've got a slew of (mostly fanart) projects I'm working on.
I'm just wondering if it's still a thing at all or if that ship has sailed without my knowing.

It was a great way to make new friends and boost lesser known artists. Ah well.
