My 'lil venture. Adventuring into the unknown.

My 'lil venture. Adventuring into the unknown.

Hi all.

If there's anything I learnt last year it was that there are ups and downs. Each doesnt cancel or rule out the other and both matter, and I matter in both.

My adventure this year is to venture into new worlds with a business venture of my own.

I am going to make my own small buisness and finally get around to selling my art.

For someone who has never has a job, this is a massive thing. I don't know what work is like yet I'm launching my own brand....what am I thinking.....well I don't know.

This thread will about where this venture leads. Will I come across an impenetrable barrier and not make it far. Or will it become a massive success and my masterpieces sell for millions.

Tbh I am not so much focused on its end goal bit the journey I take to get there.

Like a piece of art, the making can be just as much fun as the finish result and matters more to me as the creator of it.

Here's to new year and new beginnings. Let's take that first step.

So the market stall is this evening.

I'm feeling overwhelmed.

Have I got everything done? Will I mess it up? What if no one buys anything?

The anxiety is keeping me up. It's 1:25am and I can sleep.

I'm also excited. For someone who has never worked a day in their life this is a massive achievement. I guess no matter how today turns out I should be proud of myself. I got here.

Looking at the weather for today. It's possible thunderstorms 😞 hopefully it won't.

Hi,

Well done to all that you have done so far. I’m so excited for you. I’m sure you will get the chance again to go to market. I’m assuming once your name is on the list then you go as a regular or do you have to reapply?

I look forward to watching your adventure

Oh no @The-red-centaur ! 😣

When is the next market? And do you have an etsy page or some other way to sell your artwork? (No idea how etsy works, just not sure what's out there and that's all I can think of) I hope you have some other ways to sell your work.

They said we could transfer the amount to next market. It's on the 6th of April.
