Decent working conditions, flexible hours, desirable job, in China?! That's blasphemy!

Well, the desirable job part might be stretching it...more like shitty job in a highly respected profession.

That's true, the artists that do the photo to painting aren't necessarily ecstatic about signing their names on it.

Respected?

I don't think being an artist is "respected" even in the West, much less so in China, where everybody is focused on highly lucrative professions like business, finance, and ahem government service.
