Hi Janel

I first discovered this site when I didn't even have ANY portraits painted. This place helped me realize that portraiture is alive and breathing as a career. From there is was then that first step of making that first peice, then putting a painting at an art show, then doing an actual booth at an art faiir, then having enough clients to go pro, and now the goal is to expand what I paint and get myself inserted into the fine art/gallery world. I 'm glad to here these posts are helpful. I hope these updates help people see the pathway for their own journey.

Good Luck Everyone!
