Is Art A "Real" Job?

Many people say "Art is not a real "job". For me, creating art is a passion -- not something that you have to do to make a living. My goal is to be a Graphic Designer, where I can do what I love for a living. In that way, artists are the most fortunate people because they live their passion every day. The process of creating that is meaningful to the artist is what matters. Not everything in life is about money; some things are just descovering yourself and doing what you do best.
