You would think I am my favorite subject to talk about. In reality, I’m just really a nervous talker. A VERY nervous talker. I’m still learning to be a brave little piglet. So, though I haven’t sought as many exhibits this year as I did last year, I am learning about the Grant process. I want to expand my practice. In order to do that, I need studio space, supplies, money (for bills) and time. In order to apply for the grants that would help me expand my practice, I have to learn how to talk about my practice.
Remember… Nervous talker? So I want to focus on what it is that I do that is somehow more special than anyone else seeking the same grant, knowing that I suffer from the type of anxiety that makes me want to run away from exactly… (this is nervous talking, btw) …
What I mean to say is this: I’m scared. But also this: I want to get better at what I do, and I want to show people what I do, and I want to teach kids what I do.
So what do I do?
That’s another post, for another time. Thanks for listening… reading. You know what I mean
