Should ads next to art count as art income? 🤔
I think not. Violates the spirit of the idea of making money from art, if not the letter. But selling artwork *for* an ad counts.
I'd argue this one a bit: some of the best artists on youtube are making films funded by the ads on their channel - are they not filmmakers or creators because they found an abstract way to sell their films to people / fund their lives spent making these things?
