Here is a video interview that I did in August 2013 when I was in the Reno RAWartists show, Translations. This was the first time that I ever had to be candid about myself as an artist in such an official way. After the interview, there were thousands of things that I thought I could've said in better ways or could've added to my answers. In my head, I thought that I had bombed it. But looking back at it, I didn't do too bad! I like to be able to reference this video because I think that my style and confidence has changed a lot since then, and I think that I have a better grasp on the direction I'd like to head in now. It's funny how much things can change in a year!
The Shop is Almost Ready!
I've been putting in all sorts of non-painting yet art-related work lately and I'm happy to say that my online shop is almost ready to go! If you are interested in purchasing prints or original pieces, you'll be able to do so very soon! Check back here or look for a post on my Facebook page to see when the shop is up. I'm really excited that this is finally coming to fruition and I can move on to the next project on my list!
Some Encouragement
This was an email that I received this morning. It definitely was a much needed boost today. It's okay to talk yourself up and mention what you're passionate about. Even if you're just "working on it" but not well-known yet, own what you do and share it with others. What comes back might actually be good and sincere.Trace ~~<3
