Perhaps because most fanart is shittier than most fanfic? I think this is an unspoken truth. There's fewer fanartists than writers about so they get more praise for less, that's all.

Like someone said below, if you did a Harry Potter fanart, but changed his hair colour/clothing and gave him square glasses, there's very little market to sell that art (unless it's a known AU).

If you wrote a Harry Potter novel-length fanfic, then changed enough details so it was original fic, you could potentially sell it.

Doesn't that imply that most fanart is simply of a lower standard than the average fanfic?

Could potentially, yeah, but thinking it's realistic to sell your crappy rebranded fanfiction when original fiction is hard as hell to break into is funny in its own right.

Maybe it implies that people have lower standards for writing than for art?
