It's been an an incredible year of mosaic education.
My pieces are selling. I am pleased to say.
My goal for 2008 was to get my website updated, an ETSY store
going and to take the time away from family duties to do my art.
I have accomplished each goal, not by the end of 2008
exactly but now today, all those issues have been taken care of.
Two months late, but done all the same.
The taking time away one, being the hardest for me.
Because with a family of five in a 2000 square foot home,
there is always something that needs done.
Making my work hours a priority in my families eyes
has been an education for them as well.
They are old enough to take over home care, each being over
18 now...they can also take over meal prep a night a week each.
Though honestly they aren't home that much in the evenings anyway.
So the nest empties at the same time I need it to. Making all things easier.
Time to create is a good thing.
My goal for the first half of 2009 is to get a print
portfolio in order and other advertising as well.
To submit more work to galleries and shows,
both locally and elsewhere.
