Damn that's nice. Looks like a great company logo. There's something you could do to make a living.

But no one likes my pieces, believe me I tried to make logos, patterns for bag, or whatever, and they prefered some weird shit that wasn't worth the money they wasted for it

So what? If they're willing to pay you to make it that's all that matters.

That would be great if they choose me to cooperate, but they don't, that's the worst It's the crap "artists" that win over me most of the times. It's like I have to actually use my only shit, splat it on the paper and they will be like "THAT'S GENIOUS! YOU ARE IN!" . Seriously

Well marketing is a big part of what makes an artist successful, Raw talent alone only goes so far. If you're having a difficult time finding a job, and you have the skills, why not try and be a professional artist? Even if its shit, if people pay you for it, who cares? Make good art for yourself, make their art for money.

Yeah but I see at some point a shame to me to do crap art while I make better ones by that... it's just, it will bother me seeing it around later with me credited to this shit

Again, who cares if you're getting paid to do it. I do crap work when I'm getting paid to stock shelves or build pallets in warehouses. A job well done is only worth doing if being well paid. If you can earn money through your skills as an artist then why not? Especially if you're having a hard time finding a job. And who says your artwork always has to be crap? There will be clients who want good stuff. 

Or you could be like some artists who take NSFW commissions. I've met a few artists like that and they support themselves by drawing everyone else's porn.

That's really cool! Its good to be multifaceted.  My ex girlfriend was like that to. And like you, she wouldn't turn it into a viable business. You could open an Etsy store and make and sell things. People love hand crafted stuff. That's why that website is so successful.

Etsy? Hmm, I'll have a look at this... because I do have the shirt store on Cupsell, and peopel ask "woah I would love to buy a shirt with your graphic!" but when I send them the link to my store... they never buy it. Like, rly?

Yeah try Etsy. They take a cut obviously, but some people run very successful shops there. And again Marketing is important, but that's the nice thing about Social media, it makes marketing yourself so easy.
