Working artists, spouses, and semi-retirees are relatively common.

‘2,000 creative workers’ would make this quite competitive, even if it’s only 20k USD/year that could easily enable people to be artists who wouldn’t make a career of it on their own.

Right, and it would be great if people who wished to become artists could avail of this, but now it only goes for people who already are artists.

Anyone who can build an art portfolio in their spare time is quite comfortable in my books.

20k USD/yr is life changing for some people down on their luck.
