Some myths are cool. Others, like that of the fabled “Starving Artist?” Not so much. @ModernDayJames @KristianNeeTV scoured the New York Comic Con’s artists’ alley to ask industry pros about the most mystifying myths they’ve heard about being an artist. They’ll address topics like difficulty, income, and stereotypes about artists, and dispel tons of myths along the way.
