In a nutshell...
I have had 4 name cards since I started, seems a bit weird, a tad funny, in fact quite clearly strange???!! There are reasons for every change but then again I am an artist, I am thus allowed to be a little quirky? ;) Every name card marks a milestone in my journey. I have clear memories of what happened and when. And so, I did a little exercise. Charting a timeline from the time I started art lessons to now. In this 5 and half years, I have done 252 pieces of art works. 131 mixed media pieces and 121 oil paintings to be exact. In retail, I have put on 48 SKUS of my artwork on merchandise. Well, to cut a long story short... this was what happened and when ... all brief, in a nutshell.. here goes...
