Welp, if all else fails, take on/create an art project that gets you in a little over your head and pushes you, makes you better. Travel and check out conventions. Get tattooed by great tattoo artists. If you are always pushing your art, always learning, making friends, and keep your ears open then good oppertunities will present themselves, though, you may end up traveling.
