I can't believe I used to live on this website and now I haven't even posted anything of significance in a year. I'm torn between coming back? Start a new account? Staying away? I'm doing different things now. Jewelry making and such. The drawing and photography thing have gone to the wayside. Although I have been dabbling with painting. Sold several recently which is a great accomplishment. Lots more on my plate. Several commissioned pieces. Jewelry on request. Plus I need to build up stock for some market/events/bazaars I hope to attend. (plus 2 jobs, school and life) I may post some recent stuff in the near future. I'd love t

Life always has this way of taking over. I did a ton of stuff recently. Not art related, although. What up with this ga ga avatar I have now? Is this some kind of joke. I need to use this things more often. 768 deviations to sort through...oy.

And asked about a painting for a coworkers front room. I don't feel worthy. But I AM enjoying this! I need to figure out how I'm going to price things, though. My first 4 paintings I was VERY nice about. I sold the two smaller ones for $15 a piece and one of the two larger paintings for only $30. With the ridiculous amount of hours I put into the paintings it's just silly if I don't charge a little more. How do you price your time?
