Should I be an Art-Stream Only Artist?
10 years ago
I'm considering becoming a stream-only artist, in the way of only working on art of people who join me in my streams. Even if you can't really watch, being there in chat is helpful for getting details right! Also, my memory seems to be complete bunk, so poking me live and nearly instantly helps a bunch!
Thoughts, opinions?

It's an idea but I think that being a stream only artist is going to limit you some what especially for people not in your time zone. maybe use Skype a bit more and maybe make an alternative Skype account for commissions?

My main problem with that is I try to keep my programs open to a minimum as my computer can barely handle two and open broadcaster without over heating. I fear adding another program to the already open ones would render my computer completely useless and therefore would be unable to do any art at all. I would stream via skype instead, if it weren't for the sheer amount of lagg that I get while doing the art while the screen is being shared, and it's rather limited in a lot of regards. In addition, the computer I'm using is still technically not fully paid for so if it breaks down there's no guarantee i could get it fixed/replaced in any sort of timely manner. XP

That's perfect because I prefer live streaming the persons art for them exactly for the reason that I want to make it just right for them, so you are very welcome to join me when I stream. I recommend just clicking the link for picarto on my main page whenever you get on to see if i'm streaming, because I don't always announce it. ^w^
