I was fortunate enough to marry an artist. While she is a writer, she understands and shares that artistic drive that makes you want to finish a painted passage or a written scene even if it takes you into the wee hours.

Sometimes that actually has a negative impact on our lives because we are so busy doing art that we don't get ANYTHING else done! Several times we have both come out of our respective rooms after hours of working and gone downstairs to get some food only to find the fridge mostly empty because we have not made time to go get food.

I cannot imagine trying to do an artistic career with children and I respect and salute anyone who does...
