This is an emotional personal blog entry.

Some recently personal misfortunes has gotten in the way of me succeeding at this 150 percent. Sometimes I wonder a lot is it that I'm not good enough (I believe I have talent), but wonder why not selling enough. When you recently loose someone close to you (father) and you are taking care of parent who has Alzheimer's and your business is a creative you have to have the inspiration to draw, paint etc. and the ability to produce the art piece. But thoughts of is art really needed, it's not an necessary thing, but it's interesting to look at on a wall. As an artist I'm compel to create, but I also want to make a living, but is it my life situation holding me back or is it because I don't have the resources and balance to make it all work.

Art is a product that is mix up in your emotions ( this is true) as a artist we have to create and all artist out their know this to be true. Weather you do it as a hobby or business. This very thing why we need to create become our down fall if we can't get pass our life situations in order to produce, because we are the product, unless your creative piece can be set to some type of automation or turn it into some type of service. I'm curious if I had the right place, right platform, resources, time, less obligations and able to give this 150 percent what would be my results.

Am I good enough? Can I stop letting my emotions interfere? Can I stop asking myself:

WHEN DO YOU REALIZE THAT THIS IS NOT GOING TO WORK OUT?

I can't give up this dream so I'm back to creating for myself and to draw for you 😀😀.
