jan, actress headshots and my view of the artist life...

jan has been working in the theater for some time now. she decided that she was done with her day job and wanted to be an actress full time. so she left her job and is living her dream instead. i love that she has chosen to do this. it takes such courage to make this kind of jump. in a society where money seems to matter so much, it is a real leap of faith to try and make a living being an artist.

i know this myself. all artists share this commonality. there are many of us that have worked several jobs while trying to make a living with our art. in the end, i think, it doesn't matter if you 'make it' only that you have the heart to try. because that is the truest form of living and i can do nothing less than that.

here are the photos of jan that i connect to. i think they show her beauty-i mean look at that porcelain skin!- and her intensely beautiful inside as well.
