I've been feeling a very strong mix of feelings lately and it's hard to describe in words quickly, but with Nick's help I was able to portray them in some quick digital paintings. And I just wanted to share in case anybody else could relate. . I may or may not turn these into full on paintings in the near future. I am moving soon and I will be setting up a studio room because I am lucky enough to have a home with more than one bedroom. I feel like I might want to make a YouTube video of my journey with little clips here and there. Kind of like a vlog because there's going to be a lot of little things going on here and there. I don't know it's hard to describe. But I figured it might be cool to document it just for myself for the future so I can look back on where this part of my journey sort of began. . Wish me luck In the comments and give my art page a follow because there's a lot of stuff I have planned. It's just a matter of time before it starts playing out. It's too much to talk about now so keep an eye out. And thank you to everybody who has supported me over the last 9 years. 馃馃馃馃馃馃馃馃馃 . . . #samlescreations #moving #newstudio #newartstudio #newhome #anxiety #mixedfeelings #overwhelming #excited #digitalpainting #illistration #smallbusiness https://www.instagram.com/p/CqoJaDXuKkF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Enjoy some company while we work on our projects. It's more motivating to work on stuff when you're with others doing similar tasks. It's easier to trouble shoot problems, it seems less tedious, and it can be more fun with company sometimes. Stop by and say hi 馃 I'll be starting a local "Tedious Taskers" club soon in Toledo, OH, so follow my socials if you're interested in more information! . . #samlescreations #localclub #crochet #toledoohio #art #craft #live #livestream (at Toledo, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClOp9ihuibf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We had a ton of fun at TORG yesterday! I can't wait for next year! I made a few new friends and I had so many great conversations. I got a better idea of what to expect from the event so next year will be even better. I absolutely loved the range of attendees at the event. There was way over 8k and it ranged everywhere from babies to granny's and everyone was looking at everything. I love it. There was something for everyone so if you were unsure about going this year, definitely plan on going next year! Also I finally got to use my square reader and it was so great! I love it! More than doubled my sales!
