The more I learn about the the lives of artists and aspiring artists the more I'm glad I don't have an artistic bone in my body. It seems rough.

If you want to be even mildly successful in any art you have to be a good entrepreneur in addition to being a good artist, or be really lucky. Most people are good at one of those two things, if at all. Being both is tough.
