Last night was the Imaginarium show, and I really enjoyed myself! I sold a few items and made a few new friends. The wheels in my head turned a littlle too much and I now have many more ideas for other events.
Over the last few years with my knitting, I've been told that I should sell my stuff and make a living out of my hobby. Truth be told, I do know how hard it can be to make an artistic endevor a source of income. I worked countless hours in a woodshop, helping Mom and her business partner make a never ending amount of paintable wood whimsies for their craft shows. Not to mention that one March break where my friends and I painted three hundred little wood hearts in nauseating home decor colours. Bitterness aside, I was given the opportunity to see first hand the struggle that many artists face.
In short, I will most likely continue to make small appearences at local venues, and leave it as that. So keep your eye out at Oshawa events. You just might see me there!
