Works of Art

Well, I guess this makes me official. 
These are my business cards, and it overwhelms me just to look at them
Why??? Because lately I have been selling artwork as quickly as I can make it.
I don't even have a website or a gallery. Just a few pieces hanging at a local coffee shop, and pictured on facebook.
How far could this go??? How much money do I have the potential to make for my family?
My biggest issue is that I want my artwork to remain just that....ART. I really, really don't want it to become stressful and something I no longer enjoy. I don't want to just start producing pieces that I don't love, just to meet a deadline.
I have A LOT of questions!
Should I start making prints?
Should I frame my art, or just use the boxed canvases?
Should I try to submit one of my most popular pieces to a distributor and have it mass produced for a commission? 
HELP! If any of you have experience in this area, I would love your input!

Girl-Crushes


 I have never met any of these women. But for one reason or another, I find myself watching what they do, what they say, what they wear and how they live. Some of them I probably would not choose to model my life after, but still think they are cool. So here they are:


#1 Promise Tangeman
A super edgy artist, photographer, and designer. I LOVE her work, and I love her personal style.

















#2 Brooke Fraser
One of the lead singer/songwriters for Hillsong. She is a beautiful girl with an amazing gift. And most importantly, she is in love with the same God that I am in love with. 


#3 Kate Hudson
A gifted actress and such a naturally beautiful girl. There is nothing about her that is artificial or "implanted", and I love that :0)








#4 Carrie Underwood
This girl has got insane vocal talent! I love that she hasn't let her blast-off career and stardom change the person she is. From what I've seen in her interviews, she is super sweet and down to earth.






#5 Megan Foxx
Megan is on this list simply because, she's hot.
Yes.
I think that another girl is hot.
And I'm pretty sure, male or female, you would have to be blind to say that she isn't :0)
