It’s common-practice to describe our art-making efforts as either amateur or professional, the amateurs often feeling they aren’t “real” artists when in fact some of the great creative efforts have been made by people who hung on to a so-called real-job and did their work in the margins, do it “merely” for the love of it. But there’s nothing mere about love and just because you do this part-time doesn’t mean it won’t take full-time commitment.
