The month of August was a huge success for Allen Appreciation Month, and I feel very accomplished in seeing him enjoying it all! The month of September, however, has been back to business with tons of research and brainstorming new work.
This month has been a learning curve! We took some time to delve deep into the world of setting up a shop to begin selling my work. After lots of research and tons of hard work Allen and I have now set up a shop on Redbubble, and it is with GREAT delight that I am excited to announce WE ARE OPEN FOR BUSINESS!
So, let me get real for a second and say, artists, this is a great place to start to get your work out there! I honestly had a hard time making the step to selling my work (I’m not really sure why…) but Redbubble makes it easy to just upload your work and manipulate the image on products, and everything is pre-priced. There are rules and stipulations the user has to follow (obviously), but it simplifies things for the artist in the technical sense, and you can download the Redbubble app on your phone and manage your account anywhere, so I definitely recommend it as a tool to the starting artist.

*Fun Fact: People FASCINATE me. Diversity in cultures, scenery, architecture, heritage, and traditions often help inspire aspects of my work, and I love learning about it and teaching my children about the beauty this world has to offer!
