Soooo, hello again. It's been a year and a half since my last post. I think I am getting better at this blogging thing - Ha! Very quick recap. I finally left the new owners of that one job and went to work in Seattle for the last year for a different ownership group within the same franchise. I have done this job for 14 years and it was time to go work for myself.
As of Nov. 1st, I became a self employed photographer/ artist. I had an art show this past weekend and sold several pieces and even won a "Merit Award". Not sure what a merit award is for but it came with a $75 check! Good way to start self-employment. I am also shooting real estate. I have done this on the side for a couple of years and now hope to push it into full gear. I have started a new business venture with a friend of mine - Oak & Stone Images LLC. I'm so excited that I have the opportunity to earn a living doing what I love. Now just to get out there and make it happen. Part of that process is going to be "sharing" more. That means more blogging, right? It definitely means more art shows! Every time I set up for an art show, I make sales. I have always said I just need more art shows. Now that I am not working retail weekend hours, I will be able to do more art events. Happy me!
