the money sides of the issues
I'm trying to generate more income. I'm trying to generate more fine art. I'm trying to be a happy person with a good life. I'm trying my own patience.
For now, I've got some good work going for a company, working with their marketing department. The pay is excellent and the work is pleasant, and I know the finished product will be very good too. I'm pleased about it, as it's been a company I've been courting for nearly a year.
I'm also up for a big job out of New Jersey, and am still in suspense three days after giving the bid. It will be a lot of work in a short time frame, and I already know that my bid was high, so, if they choose me, I have to ask myself, "how low am I willing to go to get the job and the income?" That's a good quesiton, one I hope someday I won't have to keep asking myself.
On the art front, the only really inventive fun thing I did was take an old commercial piece and transform it into something much better. That was fun, and I had a frame for it too. Someday I hope to sell it, and therefore wring some more income out of the piece in part as revenge on the people the art was initially for. We parted on terrible terms and it was entirely their fault. I'm being objective here, I swear!
This weekend, I'll have three days to myself. I'll do some money generating art and maybe some fine art too. The one thing I need to force myself to do is make those cold calls to companies, my major hope to get better paying gigs.
