“I feel really lucky that I had some good role models of people who seemed to be devoted parents and artists at the same time. I don’t think I needed so much to know how they did it — it seems impossible to generalize how one does it, because everyone’s context/family/situation is so wildly different — it was just enough to know that it could be done, that it was possible to be a decent parent and a decent artist at the same time, and that, maybe, being good at one could even help you be better at the other.”
