The bank is going to love me… I’ll be sending an invoice out for a freelance job soon and that moolah will go into my new business bank account! Hooray! It’s a start, and although it’s document and graphics related, not art, it feels good to know that my first deposit will be happening soon.

I’ve been fighting with my photography set-up to get properly lit and balanced photos of my art shot, but progress has been slow there. I think I just about cracked it, so it looks like that’s my weekend plan. I know that these first few months of the new art career will be difficult and, at times – tedious, but it’s all necessary. Workflows, job tracking, invoices, business cards, promo packs, CV, databases, web updates, social networking, reading/researching, and yes – even creating art and writing once in awhile – is what February is all about.

That, wine and a well-deserved bubble bath now and again.
