new business owners should identify one core product and focus solely on that.
shift your focus for a designated period for each item (ex: one month, one season, etc.) to achieve best results

Writings in sketchbook
I have a LOT of handwritten excerpts in my sketchbook that I could definitely publish on my blog so readers can get to know me and my creative process a lot better. I already have a lot of things written, i just need to type them and post them in my blog :)
OTHER: These are pieces I made at Pratt Fine Art Center in Central District of Seattle, WA - provided by my work at Chihuly Garden as a work benefit. The purpose of this project was to study the effects of layering with stuff cups and reactions of different transparent and opaque colors.
