True. There needs to be a blurring of the passion and business. You have to attract those who are equally as passionate about your art and certainly those who have longer arms and shorter, but fatter pockets - usually with money in.

if art is about passion, and for me it is; an urge, a need almost, to paint, to try and capture the subtle beauty of the body, to display it in all it's glory. Then trying to run a business with art as a product is the hardest bit, trying to market passion is difficult as it is inflexible and not subject to the usual principles of business.
