Any Artists in the house?

[RowanTheRed]

Photographer here, used to do it professionally before my divorce (long story).
I used to photograph babies, children, maternity portraits, high school seniors and the very occasional wedding. Now I photograph nature things, and mostly with my phone's camera. I still have my professional camera, but I like to push what I can do with a simple phone camera without all my fancy lenses.

Just spent the last few hours going through this thread! Wow, quite a few talented folks on here. Here's a few pics of my paintings. Self taught, no lessons, ever. Subject matter mainly Wildlife, Southwestern and Native American themes. Some are "works in progress" I just dabble in oil painting when I have time and in the mood. Im by no means an accomplished artist but I aspire to be one day.

Hello! I guess I would call myself a lame spray paint artist... I make templates with masking tape and paint them.

Any tips from people who are successfully making a living off their art?!

Try pedigree dog/cat shows...I have a friend whom draws friend's dogs from facebook animal groups...

I make Stained glass windows when I'm not out with the chickens.

Beautiful! I love doing stained glass too, mainly lamps etc...have bought all the items to make a fixed window in our home, just have to find the time to complete it.
