Just searching for time to productively work on art but having trouble climbing over the fence built of job searching, self-doubt, and just not knowing what to do next. Thank you for always being honest on your blog and more importantly in your work. I am sorry to know that you are in a rough stretch. You're in it, will come through it, and will be stronger on the other side. <br /><br />Best wishes to you always!

It's good to hear about your struggles because we know we're not alone in this imperfect and often impersonal world. It's also helpful to learn about other artists; I don't feel so isolated in my small city, altho sometimes it's good to hide out from the craziness. Thanks for whatever you do.

It's particularly hard when people ask for advice. I never feel like they should be asking me.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy reading about and being exposed to the art and exhibits that you critique and write about. But the most interesting subject for me is how other artists work- what inspires them, how they schedule their time, what motivates them to show up, etc. Because in the end, we are all just people trying to express ourselves through our art while also dealing with many of the same life issues. It's comforting to know that someone else out there is going through the same things. Just sharing your story(through your words and your art)is enough to make you an inspiration to others.
