Like so many, after art school I rejected the tantalizing career path of the “starving,” or, studio artist. Becoming a graphic designer promised a more secure and comfortable lifestyle while still offering creative reward. Now, after many years I’d love nothing more than to get to a position where I can easily side-step into a monetarily-comfortable, but more creatively-satisfying fine art career. It’s not that simple! Here are my reports from the front lines.

I have to adjust my morning palette — I seem to be a little heavy on the blue end. Some more cadmiums may be in order. Sure, that’s a lot of shirts, but you know how your paint drawer can fill up without you even noticing.
