Working Craft and Big Launch!

Everyday has been filled with action, adventure and creation.  Leather right now is getting a lot of my attention.  The bracelets are doing very well.  Several other leather products are going to be launched very soon.  It has been an exciting journey getting strong growth working my craft.  When it come to leather, sewing, cutting and a lot of planning is required.  Continue to work your craft to develop your skill level, gain greater understanding of self and create wonderful work.   As an artist we also feed off of each others creative energy.  I don't do the nocturnal thing like a lot of people are doing these days.  I get my rest, for peace of mind, clarity and super focus.  I work some special projects late when needed in order to complete them and capture them on film.  I recommend making sure you get the proper rest to have your right mind on the road and dealing with people.  Get your rest and don't allow anyone to convince you to not follow the goodness that's meant for you in this lifetime.  You win when you work your craft!  Many people don't figure out who they are, several will be spending time trying to figure you out.  The times we live in 2014, holding a door for a woman generates a tremendous amount of energy.  It is far from common place and too many people expect something or having to do something.  It's just holding a door with no strings attached.  Additionally, at this stage of my life I'm going to be me.  When someone chooses to do crazy, I don't try to figure it out or question.  As long as they are not trying to hurt themselves or others they can be crazy another day.

Today Find JOY!

Find JOY in today, knowing you deserve it.  Take time today to approach life from a more positive perspective.  Have you said something kind today?  When was your last random act of kindness?  We are supposed to care about each other all the time.  Not when it is convenient.   People are struggling everyday.  Are you a help or light to everyone that you meet?  Some people just push others further into depression and despair.   All of our actions right or wrong are done by choice.  Are you the type that is willing to work as a team to get the best out of life?  Are you the type that's saying team but waiting for the moment to grab all the goal and abandon the team?  Find JOY by living your life with vim and vigor!  Knowing you only have so much time...why not spend it by being AWESOME!  Why not spend it living a fulfilling life chock full of adventure, travel, helping others, and any positive activity that you can do to make life better!  When was the last time you went on a Community walk or run?  It doesn't matter what your age is.  Your age is supposed to be a reflection of your discipline, focus, motivation, achievement and wisdom!  Move Forward Towards Victory!  Never, get tired of WINNING!  TAKE ON THE DAY AND WIN!

NEW LEATHER BRACELET TO BE REVEALED NEXT WEEK

Good Afternoon

                               I have been very busy designing a whole range of designs for my new leather work.  With this month being Breast Cancer Awareness I will be presenting a new leather bracelet in honor and recognition of Cancer Survivors.  As an artist being able to design something that is a beacon of hope, will inspire others to fight to win, live and be cured.  I'm continuing my ministry of being an artist even though there are other world events that require my attention and recommendations.  Thanks for taking time to follow, purchase, rent and display my work.  Never get tired of Winning!  Artist Carl Childs

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
