I make a piece that I'm truly happy with, that came out so naturally and isn't stiff or flat at all. I go to bed happy.
When I wake up, I find that some famous artist retweeted/reblogged the thing I'm happy with, and I suddenly have enough of an audience to sell prints and maybe stream myself painting.

Alternatively, I build a successful Youtube channel, and can make a living talking about stuff I like, and recording myself painting stuff I then sell as prints. I get to travel to conventions where I sell more work and meet fellow artists, and my lifestyle is comfortable and creative. I finally think more about the next artwork than the next rent payment.
