I like to draw and play the piano and the guitar. What careers or trades would you advise to study based on that?

Hmmmm... Well, if you like to draw like an artist, play the piano like a pianist, play the guitar like a guitarist, then I think it might be worth studying to become a neuroscientist or a marine biologist.

Wtf lol

animation, keep your music as a hobby maybe because the music industry is fucking garbage (just look at ice spice)

I just draw with pen and paper, how do you become an animator? I'm sure people don't animate with layers of paper anymore.

its not industry standard but hand animation is still widely beloved. Its also as simple as supplies necessary to get started and practice. 

many art programs, like krita and clip studio paint, also have options to do animation. each layer would be considered a frame. if you turn on an onion-skin option, you can see how each closest frame will move into the next. if you want a dedicated animation software, ive only experimented with opentoonz and i find it difficult to get used to but its feasible to get used to. ive also heard ToonBoom is excellent. 

but remember to work your way to what you see is ideal for yourself

Yeah, that's why I like practicing on paper. However, I want to do a digital jump. I have a drawing tablet but I haven't used it much because I don't know how to really use it. I wish I knew how because certainly there are people doing masterpieces with it, and I want to learn that too.

I've also heard this too. I really have to get this someday soon.

Thanks anon.

I am currently finishing an art degree, so I don't have real world experience for you, but art degrees can be used in more places than you think. They can often double as graphic design degrees assuming you have any experience with the various adobe programs needed for that. That being said, if you just want to draw to please yourself, an art degree could be a waste of money. Or more of a waste of money depending on perspective. Too many of my classmates just draw anime fan art. As far as music goes, I can't say. Frankly, too many people are unhappy and poor doing things they don't enjoy. You may as well be poor playing guitar if there's joy to be had there.

Those sound more like sources of secondary income than main jobs.

Then what could be a good job then? I'm disabled, I can't work on heavy stuff. I was thinking learning to code but I was wondering if there were other options out there too.
