dreaming big

So, my dream has always been to have my own studio/gallery where I could sell artwork of local artists, especially those who are young or just starting out, and a place for people of all kinds to meet, create, talk, and have fun!!!

This is still my dream, but I have to be honest. I have NO idea how to make it happen!!! I keep reading about people who are making their dreams come true-they have their own business, they are selling their artwork all around, their Etsy site is a success- and I can not figure out how to get myself going!

I told Big A the other night that I need a business manager/publisher/marketer to run the business side of things, which is probably what's holding me back so much. I have GREAT ideas, but no idea how to get them going.

I feel defeated sometimes and just wish I could be successful. Don't get me wrong, I'm so thankful for those of you who have/are supporting me and have bought my things in the past, and even patted me on the back, encouraging me that I'm a great artist, but seriously, I have no idea how to move forward!!!!

Uggghhhh, I guess this was just a venting post. However, if you feel as though you fit the bill and would like to volunteer your services (yes, volunteer. You heard me, I'm not really making enough to pay you, let along myself! ;) you would be greatly appreciated! :)

I'm sure you'll see me one day...at least I hope so. I've heard follow through isn't my strong point, so paired with my keen business sense, I'm sure I'm headed straight for the top ;) ...I kid! :D

  2. Big dreams are necessary to make big things happen! If you keep working at it, you'll get there!
