The artists who devoted their lives to art

I am always intrigued by the amount of artists living in Montreal. For some reason that I cannot fathom Montreal is their city. It is, therefore, not surprising that I have come to know a lot of artists. Most in name only, but few really stood out in their dedication to the life.

The nature of art usually veered them away from the business of earning money. Hence the often whispered term “Struggling artists”. So when I hear of someone who goes all in, I always get inspired by their courage. Something that I have always lacked from my upbringing. No, my life has always been about having something stable. Going for the less extreme lifestyle to support myself first.

You can only be young for so long before you lose your fire.

Natasha is a singer I met while swing dancing and have been following ever since. She’s a hardcore artist living that life with a great personality to boot. I really want to see her succeed because her dedication is infectious. But there’s nothing much I can do besides spreading the word of her existence. The picture links to her site, hopefully she will get some sample up to help you decide whether to donate to her or not.

In the mean time, check out her blog and follow her adventures.
