How do you see yourself differently now than you did 10 years ago?

Having finally graduated from college in 2007 has given me the background and education I lacked previously. Ten years ago I had all my children still under my wings - now they are all out of the nest and having their own children. It is freeing yet a huge challenge to expand my horizons and get into the art market with others who are more seasoned because they didn't take time off for their family.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

Hopefully I will be an established and better known artist. I aspire to be healthy and happy despite the advancing years.

Enjoy the journey more. 

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Worrying doesn't solve anything.

Forgive freely.
