In this point in time, when art has turn out to be more of a commodity and art school graduates are convinced that they may be able to only make a living from their work by attaining gallery representation, it is more important than ever to show the reality of how a professional, up to date artist sustains a creative practice through the years. The forty essays collected in Living and Sustaining a Creative Life are written in the artists’ own voices and take the form of narratives, statements, and interviews. Every story is different and unique, but the common thread is an ongoing commitment to creativity, outside and inside the studio. Both day by day and big picture details are revealed, showing how it is imaginable to sustain a creative practice that contributes to the ongoing dialogue in up to date art. These stories will inform and inspire any student, young artist, and art enthusiast and will help redefine what “success” means to a pro artist.
