Master Colyan Robinson
My dear friend, I think your sketches show real ability. Go to school a little longer, say until you are sixteen, then if possible go to a reputable art school and draw, draw, draw.
Forget the commercial aspect of art; your work will inevitably bring you returns in proportion to the "heart and soul" you put into your efforts. No artist of any permanent achievement ever thinks of the money one bit more than is absolutely necessary. Remember, there is no such combination of words as commercial
Art - commercialism and art are as far apart as the two poles….
