This has been a stressful week. Because the mortgage/real estate crash has hit us very hard, I have had to think about getting another part-time job to help make up for the lack of business my husband has had as a mortgage broker. So Thursday I did a little bit of job hunting. I already have my eye on one job that may open up in September. Financial stress sucks and it sometimes makes it hard for me to concentrate on my art business.
However, I do have an art show tomorrow (Saturday), so I have had to get my brain in gear and concentrate on preparations for this show. This Art Show is the third one I have done this year in downtown Boise at the Capital City Market. The only difference is, this show will be under the Visiting Artist Program of the Capital City Market instead of the Emerging Artist Show that is sponsored by Boise Blue Art Supply Store, and it has a higher application fee. I also have to set up my own canopy this time.
In spite of the stress of trying to pay the bills with very little money, I just got another pet portrait order. This order comes from a very good friend of mine and is for a rock animal portrait of a black & white dog by the name of Molly. I have posted molly's photo above. Can't wait to start on it.
