Jobs needed for starving artist

Jobs are needed for starving artist, which as the saying goes a constant day job,for such example as musicians who may like to drive school buses durning the day and play gigs at night.Painters who could draw and paint master pieces, may work as janitors and security professionals,as their day jobs some feel this is a healthier way or means for these individuals to survive.meaning that the artist needs a mode of supplying himself with money to perfect the art of choice.there are some countries such as Australia who provide grants for these artist.

The United States provided CETA in the 70S.which allowed many artists to draw murals.Therefore I feel that career linksof today could be the same answer for the these artist of today,careerlink could provide the needed counseling to push them into any day job they want as the saying goes “we need the bread man”.Some artists are on welfare or SDI that’s how the starving artist obtain bread or money to finance their art.on the other hand there are some artist that are homeless,and are need of job counseling for an day job such as street drummers musician playing jazz on the streets waiting for onlookers to throw coins at them.yet houses for habitat project has rebuilt many houses for musicians in New Orleans who were involved in Katrina.

This is a problem for the Obama team to fund the arts and build more homes for these aspiring artist,I think it would be a win win situation,for us all in the long run.According to the book the starving artist  survival guide by Marianne Taylor and Laurie Lindop, use as the example the famous painter Michelangelo, who lived in a alley flat,Van Gogh was supported in housing by his brother and lived with Gauguin which later he chased him around with a razor blade and apparently cut his ear.

Yes there should be a outreach program for more artists this could be in education or job creation in the united states also college training could be the key for some a education teaching certification, but the arts are being cut in the schools,this also present a advantage an disadvantage to the artist its probably better than working in chucky cheese,with no benefits with teaching you have benefits and summers off.
