With 5 kids (6-16), I am currently in the same predicament. I have never professed to be a housewife, only wife (I didn't marry the house) and mother. The title artist only came a few years ago. As I look around my bedroom now, I see a million things that "should" be done, but alas, won't be done until I'm able to afford a maid.
Finally, all of my children are in school, so I paint during school hours. That time disappears during the summer season, when my studio (which is a few miles from my home) is moved to my carport where the north light is gorgeous, the breeze charges my creativity and my children are given a list of chores longer than my "to do list"! My painting time is precious. If I had nothing else pressing to do, I wonder if I would be so driven to create a masterpiece?
