Thank you!

 It's been a very busy few weeks!  Thank you to all the patrons who have purchased, complimented, or taken an interest in my artwork.  Thank you to all the markets who have hosted my little set-up.  Thank you to all the shops who stock my artwork.  Thank you to all who have supported this little dream of mine!  Here is a little peek at what I'm talking about...

I also have some more exciting news.  The Local Line in Red Bank now stocks my art.  Stop by to check out my work along with all the other great items at the store.  

I've also taken some time to really look into all the behind the scenes stuff to get ready for tax season.  I thought my records were good, but I have so much to learn!  After speaking with a tax professional from Asbury Tax and playing around with GoogleSheets, I know I have all the information I need.  I also know how to plan better for next year so I won't feel the end of year stress that I'm feeling now!

Here's a little peek at my color coded screen.  Color coding spreadsheets helps me feel organized.  Does anyone else work this way?  It also makes me feel good that I can work color into my math related tasks :)

Well, enough about business.  It's now time to focus on more fun stuff.  It's been soooo cold here, so I decided to post a few pictures from warm vacations!  Warm places are so beautiful, and I think I will make some art inspired by these photos in the new year.  Expect some posts with progress photo in the near future ;)

Beautiful, right!?  Ok, one more...

Wish I was there right now!

In closing...
1. Thank you to everyone who has supported me and my art.
2. I am becoming quite experienced at GoogleSheets.  When in doubt, color code.
3. Don't we all wish we were somewhere beautiful and warm?
4. Here are all the links I posted in this entry listed in one handy dandy spot:
