Dear i.am.one,

you are so very welcome! I am very happy for you – that things became clearer and you’ve decided to become an ARTIST! Congratulations!!

In the past, you were passionate teaching art, and now you are passionate making it, so it does seem like a perfect fit for you. Something you love and enjoy and lose yourself in it – indeed, your heart’s desire, something you were made to do.

I am also glad that you realize that when you truly love something and believe in it, it matters much less what other people will say. It seems that your decision to dedicate yourself to art – which you feel is your calling – lessened your worries about getting validation from others. That’s because being true to ourselves is what matters the most!

I have a ways to go, but at least I am working towards it.

Sure, be realistic about it, don’t expect a solo exhibition within a few months period! 🙂 But keep working on it, and what’s most important: keep enjoying it, keep letting the inspiration and the juices flow. Don’t let it become about selling your art as the most important goal…. although I am glad that you feel confident that you can sell your work pretty soon. That’s awesome!

I do wish you lost of joy and lots of success in the creative process – and please, do let us know how it is going.

Rooting for you, dear i.am.one, the Artist!
