A Woman's Field Guide to Men: Artist/Musician

Artist/Musician:

-         General Characteristics – Let’s clarify things first. We’re not talking about the guy who works for GM during the week and plays at church on Sundays. No, we’re talking about guys who are fulltime artist and/or musicians. Like his female counterpart, his art is the love of his life. So, you can be his inspiration or even his wife, but please don’t ask him to deny his calling, for that is who he is.

-         Found in – Dive Bars, art festivals, music and jazz festivals.

-         Relations after Marriage – They’ll be doing their thing, so you will need to handle things. You may question their judgment with the kids, but artist are risk takers by nature.

-         Fidelity – There may be some truth behind their reputation, but then too they get approached more often than the average man.  Many (but not most) men are only as faithful as their options. …just saying.

-         Finances – Not so good and they have been known to hit a sister up for a donation or two.

-         Chances – They tend to play the field, but are open to marriage.

-         Future prospects – They don’t much care, as long as they get to play and/or create. Seriously, you need to be “this tall” emotionally for this ride. All so often, I see women of artist become frustrated, when he’s been the same thing all along. It helps if you love for art/music is almost as great as his.
