Self-Promotion

Typically I would consider self-promotion extremely gaudy. However, in times like these, you've gotta do what you've gotta do. My first post and "favorite thing" is http://www.etsy.com. My mom encouraged me recently to start selling my art. It was never an idea that appealed to me. I paint things I like and grow very attached to them during the process. But after a little investigating on this artist-friendly website, I was hooked and couldn't wait to upload my stuff and get started. It has been so exciting and overwhelming hearing people's responses to my paintings and that has been reward enough, although selling them has been exciting too! Follow the link above for some really cool, creative and original items. And here's the link to my page too. Gah, shameless self-promotion, here you go: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7703505&ga_search_query=sloan&ga_search_type=seller_usernames
