but throughout my journey, im all alone struggling. i cant depend on any adults ive started my drawing journey back to zero, i wish, this person who has been in art industry could give me insight on what to do but no the answer made me hesitate to ask her again

Ayo, I’ve just a couple steps ahead of ya (learned enough of editing and animation to get paid w/it once in a blue moon while also dealing with a family crisis). It is still hard and there ARE avenues out there that WILL pay you for your worth; but keep posting! Mentors are great once you know what you want and you know how to ask, but setting a foundation for yourself in building that workspace & experience will take detours and time. Ya got this!
