Being an artist is a lot of work. Not only do you have to continuously come up with good ideas and then execute them, but you also have to deal with the professional side of things, including promoting yourself, which often has no relation to the creative part of making work. And still, most artists don't make their living off of their art work. But they don't stop being artists. So to make ends meet, many artists have another job. Welcome to Not a Hobby, where we interview those artists who balance a full-time job and an art career. For these people, being an artist is not just a something you do in your leisure time. Episode 1 of Not A Hobby interviews Houston artist Solomon Kane.
