"Inspiration is for ____ — the rest of us just show up and get to work” (Chuck Close) (8)

I believe the answer is:

amateurs

(Other definitions for amateurs that I've seen before include "Dilettantes" , "sporting types" , "Non-pros" , "Non-professionals" , "They're enthusiastic" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
