<p>Never give up your art… whatever type of art it is … and whatever you end up studying. Art is a gift and an expression of yourself and is very cathartic and satisfying, even if you are not earning money from it. Art for art’s sake is wonderful. If you can make a decent living for yourself from it, good for you. Being an artist is a gift, and those who cannot appreciate it, just do not understand. Even if you end up working in another field to earn a living, your art is a friend that brings out your inner spirit and is something you can always enjoy.</p>
