Being an Artist in 2022

This post is about what it is like to be an artist which includes trying to make it as a small business owner. This is for people like me. It is also for me, because I won't always be where I am now and I want to remember what it was like. And I want to process what I am currently experiencing. Maybe I should just start journaling but I figure it might be helpful for someone else.

So this might not interest you if you aren't an artist or a small business owner.

Fair enough.

Looking towards the future...

There are several possibilities:

1) I give up

2) I continue but never quite succeed

3) I reimagine what success looks like

(i.e. not financial)

4) I succeed- financially & artistically
