STARVING ARTISTS
The business of art is not doing well. In California and New York some of the “established” high end art and craft shows are cancelling their events, not because of anticipated low public attendance, but because the artists themselves can’t affort to participate!! I’ve been told “it’s the economy stupid”. We’re talking starving artists here ’cause some of these artists are even threatening to get a job a job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We’re really at a low point when artists are forced to get a job; come on, it’s either/or. We’ve already got jobs thus the title artist, not hobby persoon, or sometimy when I’m in the mood artists, we’re at work. It just doesn’t pay very regularly.
