A few years back I had tried my hand at multi-level marketing (unsuccessfully) and had come to a place where I was completely broke (I had signed up for a series pf personal development courses that promised to help me get my life on track, but instead left me with an $800/month payment) and so I started drawing and selling the drawings to people in my PD courses to pay for food and gas. This is one of the drawings I sold, for $20. Shortly after this, I found a job and went back to work and stopped doing art, and died a little inside.
It has been about 7 years since that time in my life and I am now married and expecting my first child. I have been painting for about 3 years, off and on, and am finally starting to put a consistent effort in. It is slowly starting to make an effect in my life and I feel so relieved. I feel like I can start dreaming again...this time I wont leave it at just a dream... I am going to make it a reality!
