You Didn't Do It

How many times have you looked at a piece of "art" and said "I could that!" or "My kid could do that", and became jealous that the artwork was selling for half a million dollars?

The fact is - you didn't do it. If you want to sell you work for that price range than you need to just start working at it. Doing = success.

For example, I have the opportunity to start working with a second gallery but I didn't have any pieces available to sell. Why? - because I didn't work hard enough to make more. Why? I can make excuses (or rather valid reasons like a full time job and family to take care of and being totally exhausted at the end of the day). But it's just a fact that I didn't make time to make more paintings. So it is my goal this year to produce as much as I can to receive a second gallery representation and also produce a set of works to be show in a public gallery (not just private galleries).

It's time to stop the whining and "just do it".
