Tell him you've been working all day and let him do his share of the house cleaning and cooking.
Even if it's part time you can view your art as a business, as a job, as work, and then insist that others around you respect it as such. To many of us, art is not "a hobby" and the only way to communicate that to some friends and family members is to keep reminding them.
Even after many, many years of selling my art for ever growing prices, and for gradually more and more presigious clients, my Mom still refers to what I do as my hobby. I remind her patiently that it's my job!
