When I moved to the long island from Germany in 2013, I felt my next step was vague. I didn't know about the factual American artistic circumstances. Thus I needed a more active trigger to get real-world advice such as filing taxes, building careers, worksheets, and getting health insurance. Fortunately, I found the book(The successful Artist's career guide by Margaret Peot, Northlights books) for everything that it contains artist's interviews. Therefore, I recommend you if you want to make your career in advance or shape your daily life into a work of art.
