Once I had let go completely, I received my first commission. A friend posted a link to my web site on her Facebook wall, and someone bought one painting and commissioned me for two more. I was paid double what I had received for a painting yet. Very exciting. It’s great when you allow the universe to unravel.

I think the greatest challenge I have encountered are the colors. I have been blessed with having 15 or more colors to choose from, but only one of which is very dark. I’ve found that even when mixed with plaster that these light colors tend to drown each other out and not have the desired effect. I have put an advertisement on both craigslist and FreeCycle seeking more dark colors. The blood red paint I had received a while back is still a treasured find.
I would love to hear how you have gotten around this obstacle and found colors that don’t tend to wash each other out.
Peace,
cjh.
