The business end of art

Superbowl Sunday.

The Giants are back in the Super Bowl. The team I was raised to adore above all others. And I can watch it on any one of three televisions in any of the three downstairs rooms in the house.

I'm trying to get the SquareEffects website fine tuned, but I don't know enough about web design. So, I do the best I can and hope for the best.

My CafePress store has been up and running for not quite a year now. I've made some sales to people I don't actually know, and that makes me happy. I guess it's a pat on the back for me to know there are people who don't know me that appreciate my art enough to spend their money on it. I hope I can get the Etsy site up to that level within a few months, although I do expect to gain many customers through my own marketing efforts.

Sometimes I feel torn between photography and jewelry....and then I start an Etsy store which requires me to photograph my jewelry, and all is well.
