Nor I sold my car or took a mortgage. There wasn’t any revolution, I just keep creating no matter how things are going. Sometimes I imagine a slow motion rain of things falling from the sky – those are the busy days. But then the moments of uninterrupted hours of creating come, especially in the daylight, in total silence, those are the good days.
Sometimes I leave my ‘studio’ for weeks – the studio that is a shoe box filled with blocks of polymer clay and sculpting tools. There are circumstances that aren’t welcoming for art. For me, the progress is driven by passion and persistence. I keep creating because I’m an artist truly.

"I Didn’t Quit My Job" is a quite punny start...fresh contrast to the many "I changed everything, sold everything, gave up everything and became a whole new person, besides I am 100% self-taught and do it plainly for idealistic reasons." posting!
Exactly, my main reason to upvote the article :) All those sad clickbait stories, keep me from trying to promoting my own etsy shop on BP, because I just do it for the love of designing.

I am so delighted that you DIDN'T quit your job. That you have a job and pursue something which is fulfilling to you.
Creativity doesn't need a job. It needs a context to express itself - and our agreement, our will. It's good thought when we can't be artist in professional way.
