"Artists are the most talented, hard-working people I know. So why are they perennially exhausted, broke, and overwhelmed?"
Based on 20 years as a working artist and a decade of work with artists locally and nationally, Making Your Life as an Artist looks at why artists' lives are so punishing, and how we can build balanced, sustainable lives.
