Listener shout out of the week!
Thanks to Miriam’s coaching I did a thing…I’ve applied and got accepted to exhibit in my very first Fine Art Convention with Art Vancouver. It is a BIG investment, but I’m thrilled to have this opportunity. I have been looking into this since starting with AIC but was always afraid I wasn’t enough, or that I didn’t have the money to invest, or that I wouldn’t do well, or that I wasn’t there yet. This is proof that I am!
