I have become so tired of the attitude the general public has about a living in the arts (whatever it may be). "Oh, how lovely that you are an artist!"
Add this gender twist for married male artists: "Isn't that nice that he can finally do that while you're still working?!!" I understand that there's a bit of social turnabout here that's fair play, but it isn't apt in our house, and never has been.

Thanks for piping up, Stanka. Your note has especially inspired me during a bit of a slump here at the ranch.

Cheers,
Steven
