It would seem that too many years before the bar have taken their toll...

Attorneys deal less with "reality" than perception.

That's what you're doing here...

If an artist is successful, your "reality" is that it is due to sharp business acumen and conscious decisions that lead to a modification of artistic intent.

Bullfeathers !

And, further,....
Idealist my arse !

Maybe we just don't define art the same way....

That must be it...in fact, for your sake, I hope that's it.

In my world, unbridled, uncompromising, and unfettered art not only exists, but flourishes.(and can pay the bills !)

I like my world much more than the one where you seem to live.

Come over some time...the sky is blue..or yellow..or whatever friggin' color I choose to make it.
