I’m sure there’s some sort of creative person inside each of us, but in the meantime, the bills still have to be paid. Take the job and work at the easel on your days off.
I give him props. At least he got to the point that he HAS a studio. I can be sympathetic. I’ve failed as a writer at least a dozen times. And yes, sometimes I made others miserable. Sorry. We all seem to have lived, and I may go for it again.
Do not ever — ever — and I mean ever — work for The Home Depot. I used to be anti-union — until I worked there. If there has ever been a company where the employees need to be unionized — it’s The Home Depot. Lowes probably isn’t any better, but I couldn’t say.

Working mostly in latex, he was underappreciated in his time, by at least $0.70/hour, he reckoned.

That’s why I don’t have one of those lady. :POK, it’s also why so many artists are having careers with pensions first. :-/

He’d get a discount on his art supplies.

I’ve collected brushes, paper, paints, easel, instructional books, etc. The trick is finding a “real muse”. Should I try eBay?

This isn’t Fake Muse – this is Painters Block. There’s a reason they call them “starving artists” – you only get famous after you’re dead!
