wow... yea the times are amazing that we are in. Especially here in Denver where most people have the cultural knowledge of a flea. I wish sometimes that I had stayed living in Woodstock, NY. I had to move for other reasons and I would probably not be alive today if I had not moved, but to be an artist and sell art HERE is a sham. Is your wife on steemit? Yea that is incredible but I believe it. I recently was talking with someone in my "spiritual" community about sigils - the person suggested I teach a class in sigil-making rather than buy a sigil-painting from me - of course they simply need to "google" it and figure it out for themselves but instead they want ME to spend my time teaching them how to do what I have a gift to do... that which I have spent 2 years perfecting - they want me to hold their hand and tell them things that make them feel good...sad. Being an artist these days, I don't know. I just feel like it is my calling. I know I help people and I just have continually trust that all will be provided for me - but not expect too much.
