Custom Motorcycle Painters

auto and motorcycle custom painter?
How much do each make hourly and annually(from someone starting out to a higher position). I’m a great artist and am trying to figure out what I’d like to do for a career, since I’ll be a senior in HS. I’d appreciate any input on this, whether it’s a good career or a good side job.
you wont make much to start, but as you build a reputation it will get better, the better the rep the more money. I don’t think any get an hourly rate, it’s by the job, you can paint a bike tank black in a couple hours, but you flame it, and you may look at 2-3 days. get an aftermarket motorcycle or car magazine, you may find some painters or schools in it and get an idea of money. some make some big bucks that just their names add to the price.
