After taking a few weeks to get settled, the studio is finally up and running. Over the course of the last year, I have shed many works due to a lack of storage space. Obviously, I could stand to lose a few more. I'm pushing maximum capacity. The goal, however, is not to continually create artworks and then throw them in the trash or give them away without receiving remuneration for my effort. Ultimately, these works need to provide me with a full source of income so that I can continue to practice my art (without having to supplement with three other part time jobs).
