I had the same experience as Julie, just yesterday. I was waiting for some stuff to get taken care of at a small business and in the course of conversation mentioned that I'm an artist, and the salesman started telling me about being an art history major in college, and a painting he bought. I could tell he was wondering whether I was a "real' artist so I pulled out the little photo album I carry in my purse and invited him to take a look. He was very impressed and asked about my website and I ended up leaving a business card with him. Before I left he sheepishly admitted he had imagined a hobbyist when I said I was an artist.
