I have had this realization for a while now but for me certain death is not being able to create and just throw things out there and mess with various mediums until something new hatches. I have had many instance in my life where I had to go by on $5 a day.. heck, I had done it for months at $2 a day ( hello dollar pizza ) - but I cannot imagine my world without the adventure of art. I can go on without food but without having to use my faculties and writhe my hands into drawings - I can't do.
