[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 165281, member: 13090"] I forgot to mention there is option "D"... Option D artists already have money and don't need a job in the way most of us "need" a job and by that I mean in the "put food on the table, roof over the head, kids need new shoes" sort of way. Examples of Option D artists are, for instance, trust fund kids, kids that have rich parents "bankrolling" them through life or adults who have amassed personal wealth in some other fashion. These people pursue art out of boredom and, often, because no one has told them their is mediocre at best. Possessing no true artistic passion, they're really just narcissists with money. All of this I say as a non-artist, by the way; I couldn't draw you a decent stick-figure to save my life and I struggle with photography as a hobby. No, these are just my observations over many years of being surrounded by artists both Fine and Performing. [/QUOTE]
