As I progress in everything I want to teach myself and experiment with art. I am learning a lot and am doing much of what I want to accomplish. Though it is slow going and I am having a few setbacks. I know that people mean well when they give advice but sometimes it can be frustrating. I have specific directions in which I take my work to another level and where I want to go with it and what I want it to be. For some reason nobody understands that for me it is the art that comes first it has to be the way I want it to be. It is about the art and myself first not the money. As with many people I have lost a lot in my life. I have been through a lot and art is what has kept me going when I had nothing else. It has kept me from going insane and has provided me with the self love I didn't have before I discovered it. I have many people though well intended art lovers and people who want me to sell my work. Although I don't have much problem with my new work coming up I have many pieces that I will never sell and have no desire to do such as they are my treasures and too much for me to part with. I wish people would not expect me to part with all my art. The more I am pushed to do it the more I am inclined to hoard it all for myself.
I haven't felt very creative for quite some time now. Not artist block but other things taking away my creative thought process. Mostly I have been making jewelry to sell when spring comes to try and make some extra money. Check out some of these pieces from my gallery that are a bit older but have not gotten the attention that some of my newer pieces have.
