It's Okay to Share

It's Okay to Share


Really! It's okay to share. Parents and teachers tell us this all the time, and yet when it comes to sharing my art, whether it be photography or some other project I have just finished, I struggle with putting myself out there. Just recently, I have decided to come out of my shell and share, for better or for worse. What's the worse that can happen, right? I think my biggest fear is the idea of "things once done, cannot be undone." Is this a rational fear? Is this something that other artists have struggled with? I would love to hear from you.

Where do I go from here?



For me, I have decided it is all or nothing. I will follow my passion! This weekend, I have created a Facebook photography page, an Ebay store, a YouTube channel, a Zazzle store, a Flickr account, as well as joining Fine Art America and setting up my sales page. I have also joined several groups on that site so I can pay it forward. I'll admit it. All this work is probably overkill on my part! :) Oh, before I forget, I want to thank another Fine Art America member, Brad Scott, because he paid it forward, as well, through several well-made (and easy to follow) Youtube videos. So, I thank him for getting me this far. My next step is to upload more than two photos to each site, which is all I could manage so far...

If, after reading this, you would like to "LIKE" my Facebook page or leave a comment, here is the link. Though I have just started, my only "LIKE" has come from me. What can I say, you have to start somewhere.
