Latest commish is a xmas gift; reveal in January. However, I'm at terrifying stage; the "Dog's Breakfast" stage. My mean inner critic, Mr Black, calls all my choices into question and is jumping up and down saying, "I told you so!" I can at least share the palette.

Kure Beach Market is canceled for today due to the weather. www.saltandcerulean.com/product/kure... Look, we need the rain, I get it, but paper products and rainy outdoor markets don't mix well. I'm genuinely struggling folks, please consider buying some art from my shop. #art #coastalart #support

RAIN CANCELLATION : I won't be at the downtown market today. The rain/wind forecast is a bit too far outside my comfort zone today. Be the best gift-giver ever and send a little 5x7 print to a friend! Just $20. Pictured: Beach town stickers are back in stock. outr.link/coastalart

My 20% off print sale ends at midnight. Wx forecast for the next 10 days looks dismal = upcoming markets might get rained out. I'm also having surgery in August. Dr. ordered me to take time off to rest and heal. Shop the before midnight tonight: www.saltandcerulean.com #art #artsky #mutualaid

Myth: You need tons of experience before you put yourself out there.
Truth: I started with minimal experience being a professional artist or market vendor — and learned everything by doing. Waiting to be “ready” keeps more people stuck than unqualified. #artcareermyths #juststart

I signed over 100 prints for my latest restock, although I didn't film all of that 😆

The weather forecast is a little too risky and wet for me to risk the artwork today so you won't find me at Carolina Beach today. You can shop from the comfort of your dry home and still support my art business by going to www.saltandcerulean.com THE PRINT SALE IS STILL HAPPENING!
