A lot of the issues you mention are things I'm also concerned with, as an artist. (Most artists probably think about these issues.) Especially interesting is your description of the creative process. I also work in series and find that all kinds of elements from my environment affect me and enter my work in many different kinds of ways. I think it's this twisting of visual and emotional elements into a new form that is one of the things I'm addicted to as an artist. Though I paint a lot of landscapes and figure paintings, recently images have begun to overlap in odd ways. It's hard selling one's work at times because, as you say, everyone perceives things in their own way, and may not relate to a work. I have also done some commercial work, and sometimes it feeds into my other work. It's always very encouraging reading about the experiences and thoughts of other artists on these subjects.
