has it really been a WHOLE month since i last wrote anything on my blog? wow.
culprits contributing to my online absence include:
- looking into applying for art/craft fairs... realizing that most summer fairs' applications were due in early spring. bummer. then finding art/craft fairs that take place in late summer and early fall - applying for one - not getting in - boo. applying for another, being accepted - YAY! (more info. to come...)
- times of frustration and discouragement, when i (once again), was questioning my art, my purpose, a lot of things...
- times of total encouragement and support - people emailing me about my artwork, affirming my heart.
- starting new art pieces!
- more research for the business side of things - such as determining shipping costs for prints and original pieces (another step closer to opening an online shop!)
- it's summer! which, for us has meant lots of plans with friends and family. also, because -
- my little sister's getting married! her wedding is this saturday. many hours, days, weeks of preparation have gone into this sure-to-be fantastic event...
- and, if i'm completely honest, buffy the vampire slayer. my sister let us borrow the first season, and now we're kind of hooked. it's very 90s, very cheesy, and SO great!
overall, it's been a month of progress, discouragement, hope, and encouragement... hoping this next month will include some of the same - but with a bit more time spent creating, an online store up and running - and season 2 of buffy. much love, dear ones!
