New Adventure! Becoming a full time artist

In July I came back from an artist workshop. Before I left for the workshop I had changed from one nursing job to another. Really  I did not know if I was just burned out or the management was that bad. The new job in the same line of nursing work was just as bad if not maybe a tad worse. A micro manager like no other. I went away for my week to study with Joe Paquet, on my way down from the north, I looked at my sister and said, I can't go back. "What? go home?" she asks. NO, I can not go back to work I answered. I am tired of going to work and being frustrated that I am not working on creating art.  The short of it, I called the new boss and told her I was not coming back. Seemed a bit like the movie Office Space. If you have't seen it, you must! I love it. I don't see many movies 'cause I am aways messing around with my art supplies. I digress....In July, I became a full time artist. I am still finding my way. A solo show, some art exhibits, creating my yearly Christmas card. I have been looking for a market and found my way onto this site. I am always late learning about events....no more....Ok realistically I am sure I will be late still on some, but my chances are better now!! SO lets see how this all goes! Now to find a tent and all the stuff that goes with this lifestyle!!! If you have ideas, advice, love to hear it! Alright,  happy creating! thanks for your time! Lynette
