Work Your Craft to Win!

Work your craft everyday that you can with vim and vigor!  Constantly develop your skills and increase the value of your work!  Yesterday, I was blessed to be able to talk with 6 leather artists yesterday.  They imparted a lot of wisdom, strong ideas and gave me a lot to think about.  As an artist, having a diversified portfolio of work is gold.  When it comes to marketing, establishing priorities and making a push with a specific medium will take you to epic levels.  There are several times I have shared the importance of working your craft to keep the tools sharp!  Yes, there's a lot coming up.  The Romare Bearden Birthday bash was a success and yes there were several sales.  Selling my work opens opportunities for new websites, materials, travel and specialized schooling.  Always remember, Sky is the limit!  Perfect you skills and don't share all of your Kung Fu skills with everyone.  Maintain a position of being special, unique and one of a kind.  I started creating Aurora Borealis 4 years ago.  Now more artist are trying to create this work.  I don't mind leading the pack in some areas of the the arts.  Partner with positive artist that are trying to further the arts and personal goals.  The best art teacher that I can get, is one that is an active artist and on fire for teaching.  This is the best way to get challenged as an upcoming artist! Never get tired of winning! Copyright Artist Carl Childs
