...........I have re-sparked my excitement about living! I have broken out!
I went to the convenience store two days ago... ...the clerk said she needed someone to paint the windows for x-mas and she could'nt draw.
...I said."I can draw" she asked if I'd be willing. ......I said sure!...I'll paint the window! she said "I can't pay you"
I said...thats cool, it gives me practice,so you are helping me... .....and maybe I can get more work.
so.......It is coming along beautifully! tommorow I hope to post a picture. It's huge!...and in the middle of town! ...it's santa on a speed boat in a tropical shirt being pulled by 8 dolphins...with palm trees and crashing waves.
so
....GUESS WHAT?!
I got three art job offers!
.....the video store next door wants me to paint a star and a manger, baby jesus and a christmas tree,on theirs.
then the pier resturant wants to see me tommorow,about painting theirs.
then some guy wants me to illustrate a book.... ...and wanted to call me. I gave him the # ....I guess we'll see what he wants.
...when I post the pic, I need to ask you guys what I should charge. I suck at that stuff. .......I told the video guy 30 bucks.
the convenient store I did free, ...........but I got better than money for it....I think.
Suze,Signing it isnt an OPTION...Its a REQUIREMENT....ESPECIALLY commercially.Dont even GIVE them the option,and if you DO give them the option tell them its more money for the window since your killing more potential buisness.
yeah,Your window paintings are as good as the guys over here,Thats a really great tropical scene btw,Looks alot like the christmas windows we got around here.....Santa and his beard are ESPECIALLY amazing.....
I DO have one bit of constructive critisism for you though,Your palm trees (since ive seen About thousands of palm trees) are kinda lacking in detail in compareson to the rest of your work,make the palm trees better......
