    usually u need to get an artists license to sell it on the street or at festivals..etc

    you dont HAVE to have one. but i think its required so you may get in trouble.

    dont remember exactly but just somthin to look into.

    actually. online, and at the art shows, if you can get a set up. you dont need a license.

    but for on the street i think you do.

    There are some older posts from skycanvas - like this one - who may be an interesting read for those of you who want to sell your art on the street.

    You don't - by definition you have to be starving to be an artist. If you ever end up making a decent amount of money from your work, you're automatically a sell-out. :D

    true,, but what if an artist has no other means of having money to "eat".. or, its all the artist wants to do with their time and life, and eventually their art is being demanded and paid for? My future i KNOW will consist of me creating as many types of arts as i can. not just creating on paper or canvas etc. I will ALWAYS be me. for now, people in general will always need $. gracias, haffa nice dey. -my word:)
