I couldn't tell you the rejections I have received. And I am not sure that I wouldn't have fretted over living in poverty but being able to paint had I not decided on this version of domestic life, which, incidentally, is on its way to hell in a handbasket quick sticks. <BR/><BR/>ah. <BR/><BR/>enough.<BR/><BR/>btw, you are doing the most important job in the world if you ask me, and I have done it myself. very worthy. very very.fifihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06946945635726214503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9132036248899760902.post-46353068671184662382008-09-04T08:24:00.000+08:002008-09-04T08:24:00.000+08:00That is a wonderful, thought provoking post.

I can only imagine the struggle you have felt between wanting to be true to yourself and your art, and to support a family on your own. Hopefully, now that the children get older and more self-reliant, there will be time for you to fully rediscover your creative passions and explore them in a way that makes you happy.Melanie Gray Augustinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01531718674624846409noreply@blogger.com
