After
moving across country four times and cocktailing,
bartending, waitressing, selling cars, GO-GO dancing, modeling, counting ballots,
stocking shelves, and a few to many craigslist scams; I re-connected with
my paint brushes that I hadn’t picked up in years and started creating my own
path to success.
The fear held
me back at first. Once, I realized that even if/when the economy bounces back
and I get a good job, that I probably still wouldn’t be happy; that is when I
knew there was no better time than now to pursue my dreams. Of course I also
have to attribute my bravery to an abundantly supportive husband. If it were
not for his belief in me and the success I can have doing what I love, you would
not be reading this.
I have no
formal training in art, meaning I never went to collage and majored in it. In
fact, I didn’t take any art classes in college at all. I attended Mississippi
Gulf Coast Community Collage for a technical degree in Business Tech/Mngt and Entrepreneurship.
I guess I have always really wanted to
be my own boss. I have to tell you though it takes a whole nother’ kind of
courage to actually go through with it.
