Sure it is possible!. It takes a lot of hard smart work and the money isn't always steady!. Be as diversified as possible!. As to being peaceful!? Perhaps it depends on what you think peaceful is supposed to be!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not in my experience!. I have family members that are tremendous, known artists locally, but they rely on a primary job as the sales of art is very unpredictable!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I hope so!. It is my goal!. When you figure it out will you let me know!Www@QuestionHome@Com
