Goods and Services | Pay Artists | Living Wage for Artists

A woman approaches an artist and wants to pay her in exposure. The artist tells her that money can be exchanged for goods and services.

As we enter the holiday shopping season, remember to pay artists just like you would any other business owner. If you are part of an organization that doesn't have the funds to pay an artist, look into grants and community initiatives to find a way to properly compensate artists. As much as we like taking on fun projects, we also deserve to be paid for our time!

This is from a comic I drew over 4 years ago. It was pretty lazily done and kind of crappy, even compared to what I was capable of at the time. I decided to redraw it, since this is such an important message about fair wages for artists.
