Economics
This is getting off the point I meant to make, but the economics of today are not so different than those for artists of the past. If one tires of creating large portraits that must meet the approval of demanding clients one can go to the Alps and paint landscapes like Sargent.
If these works are fine, galleries will sell them. If you are traveling, like Sargent you can dash out a painting of a train stop with oxen and sell that. If your client is busy you can paint your hotel room and sell that while you're waiting for the appointment.
But before you can do the sales, you must be able to make the work.
