HOW TO FEEL MISERABLE AS AN ARTIST
- Constantly compare yourself to other artists.
- Talk to your family about what you do and expect them to cheer you on.
- Base the success of your entire career on one project.
- Stick with what you know.
- Undervalue your expertise
- Let money dictate what you do.
- Bow to Societal Pressures.
- Only do work that your family would love.
- Do whatever the client/customer/gallery owner/patron/investor asks.
- Set unachievable/overwhelming goals. To be accomplished by tomorrow.

Chris I am feeling the same way. Also, every time I type your name I accidently type Christ and then must remove the t. Which is silly, we all know Thomas Kinkade is the only one deserving of that title, maybe one day you too will gain it.
hahaha!
here's some insanity -- today i stumbled upon the i hate thomas kinkade club! whoa, that guy's got some jealousy issues to even think up such an absurb notion!
