Artists in the Closet

Do you need to get discovered?

According to the American Bureau of Labor Statistics, if you live in the United States the best chance is that you're in the transportation industry. If you don't drive a vehicle professionally, there's a strong possibility that you work on computers, manage payroll or assist in some other administrative capacity in the professional services sector. Still haven't hit the mark? Next on the list is food service, so if we haven't guessed your job yet you might be taking orders or flipping burgers in a restaurant. We see similar trends in the United Kingdom and Canada.

The point is, whatever it is you do for a living, you are probably not making a dime as an artist.

The only people who get a foot in the door in the arts and entertainment industry are those who believe in themselves enough to put their work out into the world. If you make it but you don't show it then you've got a hobby, not a potential career. Show us what you've got.
