The food that you eat doesn't arrive at your table by magic. Other people work to produce it and to get it to you. Likewise with the water you drink, the house or flat you live in, the clothes that you wear, and all of the other necessities of life. All of these are produced by the efforts of your neighbours.
You have no more of a natural right to consume the efforts others that the French aristocracy had to consume the produce of their serfs or the White plantation owners had to sweat and bleed labour out of their slaves.
We must all produce at least as much value for our neighbours as we consume, or else we are little more than parasites who live purely at the expense of others. In a truly free market the price we get for our labour is unlying indicator of how well we are serving the wants of others.
If your artistic efforts are not well rewarded then it is because the honest and un-honeyed opinion of your potential customers is that your work is not good enough for them to want it. You would serve your son better if were less petulant and more honest about your lack of talent. Then you would see that you serve the world best by applying your talents however great or small in whatever direction delivers the best rewards.
In capitalism, rewards follow the wants of others.
