And to think that in grade school I was chastised and got a poor evaluation in "self-control" because I wouldn't shut up. How unfair.Joan Goldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03150492576818497449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4363007945636462774.post-48386727155058756192010-10-01T23:29:38.243-07:002010-10-01T23:29:38.243-07:00This is a beautiful page Joan.

I had never thought about that. But I have ...Hmmmm. I had never thought about that. But I have known several male artists who didn't market themselves or their work at all. They preferred to remain in the shadows. Of course if you need to sell your work, hiding out in the studio is not an option.Joan Goldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03150492576818497449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4363007945636462774.post-43853028828815416772010-09-13T01:01:52.726-07:002010-09-13T01:01:52.726-07:00I wonder if this is a more difficult thing for wom...I wonder if this is a more difficult thing for women, who traditionally have been raised to be good quiet little girls who shouldn't seek too much attention for themselves. Perhaps less of a problem in the younger generation raised with the self-esteem movement? Regardless, it is difficult to sell oneself, especially for us solitude-loving creative types.Paper Chipmunk (aka Ellen)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15014954266777016841noreply@blogger.com
