As time progresses, my predicament becomes increasingly clear. In my endeavors to further my artistic abilities, my focus on the financial aspects and possibilities that require strict attention has depleted; To transcend this hobby into a career. Yes, I have put forth the effort to construct a fully-functional online store. However, it's entire function is to bring-in revenue, which it has brought very little. To put it simply, the issue isn't so much of the content I create, but more of the exposure I lack. The store is redundant without customers. Therefore, I will begin selling original artwork (paintings) on Etsy.com sometime soon to at least gain some form of exposure (small as it may be). As for now, I will continue pressing forward with a rather unique painting I have instore at the time being. I say "unique" because this particular painting is very different in contrast to my previous creations. Until it's completion, au revoir.

UPDATE (December 16th): The Etsy shop is now open and I will be selling a few original paintings at a time. Most of which will either be the "Abstract Emotion" series or the "Ghost" series (which I hope to create more of in the future).
