Content Description

He thinks that Durham [Rayner's] character is strong enough to withstand the affects of employment as a commercial artist, as long as he uses the security offered to further his real work. An artist's life is a precarious one, but with talent and determination one can "carry on very well". Provides an account of his early career. One must hunt for work, and Durham has no obligations to hold him. So many artists are looking for positions in art schools.
