I guess this is evidence that some artists are making money

Because otherwise Dick Blick wouldn’t be selling these lifesize wooden manikins now would they?

Of course not.

Only $555 for the kid, $779 for the lady and $799 for the dude!

Hell, what’s another $800 when you’ve got $100K in art school loans, right kids? It’ll look so good in the condo! And now you’ll never have to draw from any of those gross naked people!!
