🌈 YON on Warpcast

🌈 YON pfp

so far, my LA plans are down horrendously: · got scammed out of $1000 on a big lenticular print batch. · only managed to edit 1 youtube video in 1+ month, and i don’t even like it. · the only way for me to stay longer is with a US employment contract. all i want is to focus on my art without stressing over visas and bureaucracy, but that shit is always in the back of my mind. it’s frustrating being so far from the community that supports me the most, so i truly want to find my way. still vibing though, but i wish i could've done more this past month... most of my time went to visa requirements and setting up an LLC just to be able to sell pieces online as a foreigner, and i couldn't focus on producing the pieces themselves.

Would it be easier if you weren't trying for LA? It's awfully expensive there, I am sure there are places with a lower cost of living that might make this more attainable

The IRL stuff can really be a pain. I’m really sorry dude. That all sounds really frustrating. But I know you’re resilient. I know the type of person you are and the kind of work you can produce. So much good can come from this struggle if you can embrace it with gratitude and patience.

Que pasó con el O1? But for reals, don’t lose hope man, it took me 30+ years to get status in this damn country

Bro I think the best artist visa is O1-B (individuals with extraordinary ability (lol)) But you’ll need a lot of Americans high tier artists to write good shit about you and a bunch of stuff (exhibitions, articles, interviews ecc..) that proves you’re a successful artist. Also a good American lawyer🥲

I'm sending you energy, Yon! ✨ Moving, even if it's temporary, is difficult and takes time to get settled in. Eventually, you'll find the right rhythm for that city. Bureaucracy is the worst, but sometimes there's no other option, saaad 🫂

Sorry about the scam, that sucks. Hopefully the extended visa won’t be too painstaking. Hang in there my friend!

You probably already know but just in case: O1 is the best visa for artists Otherwise H1B is doable if you get an offer from a non-profit The regular H1B is hard to get but not entirely impossible. Sadly, you won’t be able to start until next Oct regardless Some school program that allows OPT/CPT may be an option (but expensive) Been there, done that, sorry this is so rough (and LA is not budget-friendly at all)
