People seem to overlook that throughout most of human history (as well as most indigenous societies), 'artists' had productive day jobs and did their creative work out of personal desire. By and large, the concept that people should make a good living simply by creating art is a modern aberration. jay ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: Tim May <tcmay@got.net> Date: Thu, 4 Jul 2002 12:01:07 -0700
After all, most would-be writers and actors can't make enough money on their ideas and artistic expression to live on without also working as waiters and waitresses and driving trucks.
