Working as an artist - especially one with a "real full-time job" is frustrating. My "real" job is somewhat strenuous and I start early in the morning (4;30 AM most days), so my time to paint / create is much more limited than I like. Along with that, not every day can be spent painting. The following photos show a few things I did just this week (some enjoyable, some just necessary) that go along with the painting life:
Shipping paintings
Getting out and taking photos for inspiration / ideas / reference
