Clarification

I need to say this before someone jumps in on this, but when I said 'worth' above, I hope you all know I meant your art and not anyone as a person. To compare your worth with just your art is just plain wrong.

Beth, I was just talking about little part-time jobs not full-time. The part-time gigs pay pretty well. You may put in eight hours max and you'll walk home with okay pay for that time. Hey, working full-time and trying to do art is so frustrating and draining. I have been there and done that, it was the worst set-back in my art development, ever. Ten years of doing no art at all - imagine. Like you I was an art major at UGA (GO Dawgs) and Watkins Institute in Nashville. I put my brushes and pastels down for very dumb reasons, but here I am trying to get on that art bicycle again. It is not easy.

Everyone is in a set-back. My mom deals antiques and for a while there she was really squeaking by. Her old bad shows suddenly became her new good shows. Now the antique shows are seeing a little light and some Atlanta art galleries
