I am an artist. At about the age of 4 I decided this is what I would do. I try to keep my thoughts on the lighter side. We currently live in the foot-hills of the White Mountains Lakes Region. In the colder months of the year we get a few feet of standing snow and I mostly hang out at the house and paint (both personal and comissioned works) upwards of 18 hours a day, take care of my family and maintain a household (I do all the cookin')... In the winter I deal with very few people.
I have been traveling for the past 21 years between 4 and 9 months out of the year, but only the past 11 have I been bringing my art with me. While traveling I enjoy meeting people, talking about art and other abstract extrapolations, plus selling my prints to get by. This is what I love to do!
When my Family is traveling, we take it easy about half the time, camping, going to museums and seeing the sights. When we are working the time is spent displaying the prints, driving to the next show, sitting in the hotels rolling prints and staying on top of business, there is little time for sleep.
