@astralwalkk @princesspuck88 I buy original art at local studio open houses n art shows, I think ppl do want to support artists when they can afford it, so the more abundance we create w like AI automation n regulatory reform (ahem yimby for housing! & nuclear!) the more room in ppl's budgets for art
@astralwalkk @princesspuck88 also imo the easier it is to find n buy from a creator the more likely ppl are to opt into paying, even if in theory they might be able to avoid it... I use Ravelry for knitting and buy patterns through the site which are uploaded by the designers- the platform makes it easy 🫶
