I think art is a little more like pro sports? Lawyers are close to guaranteed a comfortable, if not exceptional, income; a JD from even a mediocre school is pretty much a ticket to some PMC position if you're not an outlier/psycho. Art -- you're freezing in a garret or you're Damien Hirst.
Both art and law are subjective. Both are full of shit so there goes your proof.
