CREATIVITY: There is no limit to what we can do!

Posted: Jun 4, 08 5:32pm

Dont believe you cant make money off your art by being an artist, even in a recession. Believe it not! Art is a billion dollar business and a recession rarely affects the serious art collector. If your good at what you do and enjoy it, make a profession out of it and do it! Here, lets share our inspirational messages to keep us a going in the direction we want our careers (or hobbies) to take!

That is totally cool, I also know other artists who have bartered with dentists, doctors, chiropractors and massage therapists!

Yes, I think the title sounds a bit like a self-help book......but.... really, ART is and always be one of the very most cultural aspects of humanity on every level!!!!

Barter? My mom's Hypnotherapist (I refuse to treat her myself LOL) gave my mom a free session in exchange for me writing some jokes for him. He's giving a talk at a Rotary Club function.
