I'm noticing a trend (thinking back not just recently, but over years) that when I look for art advice, I'm simultaneously told to focus more and branch out more. Don't just do paintings--do merch and lower price point stuff that people can go for! Don't just do furry art, do less niche stuff! BUT ALSO, find one thing or a central theme you can be known for and focus on it! Do more of the stuff (i.e. full paintings) that will look the best in your gallery!
Legitimately, what am I supposed to do? 😠I feel like the Spongebob meme where his eyes are going two different directions right now...

Do you actually like dealing with merch? Or would you rather just do paintings? Do you want to be known as the person who draws ___ thing, and everyone into ___ knows they can come to?
If you actually do what you enjoy, that will shine through more than if you try and force it.
