What makes an artist

What makes an artist

Making & creating art works is more than just the end result as an object. Art making is a life time commitment for me. Forever learning & producing art encompasses research, promotion, marketing, bookkeeping, computer knowledge and a little bit of insanity to make it all interesting!

Forget about hourly rates, pension plans, and income streams. My collection of art works that build every year has certainly cost me money, time & sacrifice to courageously express something personal, unique & creative which I hope comes alive with inspiration and delight for the viewers and collectors. The ability to manifest people, resources, and circumstances is keystone to my experience of being an artist who sells. My art works are cultivated with explorations of several mediums, styles, and compositions using design concepts.

Technology has been an incredible gift to show, perform, and expose my art works to people all over the world. Learning all the pathways to developing oneself on the internet has been a major learning curve. Finally, on this day I have come to marketing my art works for customers to purchase quality prints, cards and with many choices of frame styles, & matting without leaving your computer screen.

Check out my personal websites:
www.artgirlgallery.com... This site is filled with a variety of original art works for viewing and for sale.

www.tripnaround.com... A few years my mate, Jim and I decided to focus on world travel. His extensive research and my enjoyment of writing, and photography brought me to creating a website for our travel tips, travel journals, and travel photo slide shows of the countries we travel.

www.spinderellasoap.com... This website is exclusively featuring my adult fiction/poetry story book that I wrote and illustrated. It's for adults only and the story starts where Spinderella, my modern day version of Cinderella, gets a divorce from King Clout and adventures her new life. This book was written and illustrated over 10 years and was eventually upon completion, performed in front of a live audience at my studio loft space, consisting of the cast and crew of the popular TV series 'L-Word'.
