An interview with the artist Stephen Talasnik (55), whose paintings will be on view at the Marlborough Gallery in Chelsea, London, through April 24, 2010. Talasnik describes the life of a working artist, in particular the challenges of making a living. He talks about his family's reaction to his chosen path and explains how he embarked upon his career after leaving education. He talks about how he chose the curators to approach, and explains his decision to approach European collectors rather than Americans. He also talks about his financial situation and his typical working day.
