The Joy of Networking!

: Resilient, there is no such thing as “I can’t” if there is a way, I will find it.

: The sky is the limit and I will glow in my season!

: There is growth in unity

: I may stand alone, but I am free to be me, I will survive

: Solid!

: I work well with others and there is strength in numbers

I am often asked if, I was not an artist, what other career would I chose, that’s easy…lawyer. It has been three years now since I have seriously decided to focus on art. It is challenging to say the least, but increasingly inspiring. Besides being in the studio and working I enjoy the networking and marketing side of it. I do a lot on the internet, and have met individuals, fellow artists who I have come to respect and of whom I consider to be friends and peers. They have given me credible advice, helped me with technical issues to increase my web visibility and most important shared endless laughs.
I realize in this business as an artist one has to be tough, strong, resilient be prepared for rejection, respond well to criticism good and bad, and know that not everyone will like you or your work. The most important thing is I am passionate about the work I do and I enjoy doing it.

This morning while waiting for my ride to work, I went to my backyard and I saw some images that reminded me of my artist friends. Seeing that I always carry a camera, here we go!
