Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
People respecting my time, effort and talent. There has been multiple times where people requested for me to sketch or create something for them. I have had several experiences where I spent multiple hours and money on work that wasn’t valued in respected. I learned to utilize an artist agreement or contract, so that my time and resources are respected.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I teach private adult and children art lessons.
I began teaching cursive handwriting lessons this year.
I’m working towards a certification to teach yoga to kids
