		<description>Okay - so the art fair in Colorado was a disaster. BUT - things are looking up! On the way home, I nearly ran over Big Horn Sheep in the road! Needless to say, there was a photo/sketch session (much to my son's dismay-he just wanted to go home). AND I just received word that two of my paintings were accepted into a juried exhibit in Jackson Wyoming during the 2009 Jackson Hole Fall Arts Festival! WOO HOO!</description>

		<description>Deb, what a lovely post! I agree fully with you - you are what you decide you really want to be. If you passionately desire being an artist, and you work and practice and create...then you are. Regardless of whether the work sells, or for how much, or any other silly external measures someone else might impose. YOU get to decide that you want to practice art!

Every now and then a collector or someone else asks me why I do art. I answer "for the same reason I breathe." - because I gotta. I have no choice in the matter - I MUST do it in order to LIVE, fully and happily.</description>

		<description>*s* Marti, a number of years ago I worked full-time as an illustrator/journalist/photographer and I remember when I started out Iwas told, "you're not a writer, artist, photographer until you publish something" When it appeared in print, I was then told, "you're REALLY not an......until you're paid big bucks for it." At that point I decided, I am what I know in my heart I am and I really don't need anyone else to confirm it. If you have the desire to create, nothing will passify that until you actually create. Be open to opportunities, learn to take criticism objectively and contructively (you will know bull when you hear it!) and learn. I can't imagine doing anything else even when our hearts sometimes get stepped on. It also helps to realize that others are going through similar emotions, experiences and we're also sharing growth together. 

Julie, thank you so much for your humor, honesty and help. Sadly, sometimes when individuals achieve success they may forget the others who are following. Thankfully, you don't fall into that category. Please keep posting, I really do benefit from your experience and suggestions. Thanks!</description>
