Too Many Late Nights In Front Of The Canvas?

The problem is most of us artists still have to get up the next morning and go off to some real job and do some real work to pay our bills.

How often do your inspirational surges play hell with your real time life? You ever get into a groove and not want to stop? Shouldn't God or the US government figure out some way for us to keep the same hours as our muses and still be able to pay our bills?

I don't know about you guys but my muse likes to keep late night hours and more often than not she's a pain in the butt when it comes to punching a more practical time clock.

So about four o'clock this morning this thing was finished:

The title is either an homage to the muse or a slightly veiled threat that she start keeping better hours or she'll be out of a job.

As I write this it is 5:49 AM & my eyeballs feel like your painting! Yes, I have a choice, but the muse sometimes whispers, so I hear her better in the late nite & early mornings. When the world is dark & most civilized folk are dreaming there are no loud voices & demanding tasks to make me deaf to her siren song. Don't most of the more brilliant & eccentric stars of art work at night? Blessings.
