We're both musicians. We have a baby grand, several guitars, two drum kits, and many other instruments.
I'm more analytical though, but have zero visual art skills. I'm the better musician, and she'll readily admit that. I'm also a better logician and far more "fluid" thinker too. I know my way around computers and networks also, so I assist the kids and my wife by giving them the technical resources they need and otherwise by helping them learn to teach themselves (this is ultimately what you want kids to learn. With the modern imternet, the possibilities are pretty much endless if you know how to learn how to know how).
We do a bit of "unschooling" too. Kids are always learning. Sometimes you just want them to think they're playing. And the truth is, learning never ends. The distinction between "home" and "school" is an artificial one maintained by the state.
