This is the first year I made more money selling art than I did freelancing web dev. I just incorporated and formalized my web dev business (https://lcdbmg.com). A couple of weeks later I got a booth at an art festival and ended up selling many prints (https://lucidbeaming.com). I think the universe is telling me something.
congrats! I wish I could make a living of art again, music production in my case.
Because being a dev in 2026 is becoming unbearable.
Hey, that's awesome! Very nice work and a really good portfolio site.
How did you find the festival-booth experience?
I have done festivals before, so I knew what to expect. One thing I had this time was accepting credit cards and apple pay through an NFC app on my phone. Most people paid with apple pay and were glad I accepted it. Being in a sales booth is awkward at times, but I made friends with the other exhibitors. I had some good conversations with people.
