All artists are people of growth. It's like food, you take the good and leave the rest.
I've done my time in being broke in Indonesia. Eating Goat soup. Australia's a developed country, you've got a lot of taxes, rents are high and its quite difficult to survive as an artist especially when you are just coming up.
I went to Bali for two months and met my wife, and that's how the story started... We had a very simple beginning, selling art on the street.
