Etsy at last!


My Etsy shop is up and running at last! The first step in my plan to conquer the art world! Everyone has to start somewhere right? I dont know why the things that do us the most good are the hardest things to start. Just ask anyone who's trying to make themselves get off the couch and go running. It could be a perfectly beautiful day outside, there could be gorgeous scenery ( if you're me there is the very good possibility that the local men's track team could be out there on my running trail sans shirts), and still we cant make ourselves get out the door!

I've been trying to get used to the idea of selling my artwork for over a year now and its the most uncomfortable thing i think I have ever done! I dont think its the fear of failure. I'm alright with the idea that Etsy may not be the venue that succeeds for me. Maybe I'm more nervous that it will succeed. Arrrgghhh! Then what? I'll have to go further and try to market myself to other potential art customers. Marketing myself, now that is frightening.
