Paul Heaston
artist in Denver, CO. He/him
- Been thinking about teaching again since my wife lost her job and we need a reliable income, and assuming I could teach full time (unlikely when you’re an adjunct) I could *maybe* make $50k a year before taxes. So that would just about cover our cost of living assuming we don’t eat.
- The last five years for me have been very difficult for my mental health in terms of being an artist. I’m having a lot of doubts, and I’m having a hard time finding the inclination to keep making art. Is anyone else feeling the same way and what has helped?
