I'm reclusive and a creative. It's challenging making these two traits work together successfully with growing my business. Can any of you relate?

Also, sharing pics of a past rock art special order I did years ago.

Working on an order. My hand drawn art, digitally re-imagined. Printed it and will decoupage it onto a wooden canvas. I'll then paint the borders black, then apply a few more layers of sealant, then, voilà!!!

Some of my unique, only-one-made butterfly pins / brooches, necklaces, and spider and web. I combine wire and beads to create these alluring, whimsical pieces.

FLASHBACK! I created this piece way back, probably between 2012 to 2015 or so, after taking that free Zentangles class at the Woodbury Public Library, NJ, that inspired my current style. This was a commissioned piece.

Any other Zentangles artists here?

Some of my abstract art. I mainly do B&W but here, I'm showing some colored pieces too.

I just draw - no intention, and all sorts of interesting things begin developing. Faces, eyes, animals, creatures, waves, warriors, etc. WHAT DO YOU SEE?

Fellow creatives, what's your day job? Or are you able to make a living from your art?
