Long ago, my son - now 27, then 9 or 10, said this to me, "Mom, mom. You gotta make a decision. If you want to be rich and famous, you CAN'T be both an artist and an art historian. You gotta chose one!"
Well, I have NOT chosen one. I have spent my adult life as an artist AND an art historian. And my son was right! I am not rich and/or famous!
Actually, my goal is NOT to become rich and fameous, but as I get older and older, I am finding it harder and harder to push my art to the limit, because part of my time is spent with my art history endeavors.
Shall I give up art history and focus all of my energy on my art?
Thanks for any advice, Miranda!
