I believe that most painters have at least two projects going on continuously.
Some are financially independent by being rich, rich and famous painters, or married to a rich, while others have another job alongside the painting.

Many, here in Denmark, live on welfare and do there painting as there only activity.

The lucky ones are famous and teach.

I am actually not sure if I would want to live exclusively from painting portraits. I would like to keep the painting business as the fragile flower that I nurse and love and not the pair of horses that have to drag me through the mud of life.
