Artrepreneur - I have decided that label describes me best. I wish I could take credit for having coined that word; unfortunately, I believe I read it somewhere. You may be asking yourself "What's an artrepreneur?" Yet, you may possibly be ahead of me. Whatever, I will tell you anyway.
As an Artrepreneur, of course first, I am an artist. Duh! As an artist, do I want to sell my work? Duh, again! What artist wouldn't want their work hanging in homes other than their own. I'm assuming in a collector's home or a wannabe collector's home. I love looking at my own work, but I have limited wall space. Once the walls are covered, the storage space fills up quickly. What's an artist to do? Duh! Sell!
Anyway as an artrepreneur, I am an administrator, bookkeeper, publicist, marketer, salesman, webmaster, blogger, photographer, purchaser, maintenance, carpenter, framer, creator, writer, painter, sketcher, student, reader, speaker. You get the idea. I'm not saying I'm good at all these responsibilities; however, I have to do them; otherwise, my work would be banished to the garage and I do like parking my car there.
