Time to make Art and places to make it
There are always so many things to do and chores to perform that studio time gets moved to the back burner, an I mean the very back. Every artist struggles with the same problem and many never figure out what to do with it ... therefore many artist quit making art. Maybe the first definition of what an artist is should be about the artist success with this one point ... do you make art? If you can continue to make it over the long haul. And then talk about content and quality. Many very good artist just stop ... they get tired of the fight to find time for the process and finally give up. As a college professor I believe that this is the part that goes unexamined with school. How do you build a life that allows you to continue to produce artwork?
So... make it easy on yourself. Keep materials at the ready. 15 minutes here and there can be valuable and productive minutes.
