Artists with day jobs

Serious artists with day jobs: own it.

Embrace the fact that you're giving your art your all despite having even more limited hours in a day.

Embrace the fact that your job serves to enhance your art and personality--not hurt it, as is commonly believed. It is the yin to your yang.

Embrace the fact that you're showing the vast majority of other artists (who are not earning a living solely off their art alone) the way to get their art out there despite various limitations & challenges.

Embrace the fact that you're not idly waiting for your art to start paying the bills. That you're still working at it. That you're still also earning a living.

Embrace the fact that working a day job does NOT make your art any less valuable, credible, or powerful.

Embrace the fact that you've come this far.
