I think I know what would be a perfect fit for me for a career in the long term. Own a small scale photographic studio. I stumbled on this guy's site http://www.cloudninephotography.ca/ Don't think I would care to live in Kelowna unless I was raised there but a similar career pursuit would be fantastic. You're a small business owner so there's no repressing the urge to straight arm some useless 'boss' out the window. The earning potential is substantial if you're willing to do anything related to the field. There is certainly a creative element. There is the small matter of the six figures in startup costs and we're good to go. Details, details...
I spoke with Ian Tan owner of iantangallery.com yesterday about getting paintings on exhibit in his gallery. My Mensa Boy sibling needs a good kick in the ego regarding his art.
