Well, ok i know, it's been a while since I posted anything but I've been kinda busy and good fortune has come my way.
First of all I finally have my web site up and running, it needs a little more work but I have my domain registered and e-mail accounts.
Secondly I have been accepted into the Riverside Arts Market which is a juried market and I'm really excited about that.
http://www.riversideartsmarket.com
I've been there 3 times and so far I have sold a few things but more importantly I've met people who really like my work and that may lead to new opportunities.
I now have connections with people who restore furniture and on occasion will need a piece custom turned. I have met people who may be interested in some commissioned work.
I have also been approached by Venues Event Planning and invited to participate in another juried arts market in Ponte Vedra Fl, at Sawgrass Village, which is part of the PGA tour. The dates of the arts festival are May 7th and 8th, the PGA tour starts on May 9th so I looking forward to a good crowd.

I don't really consider myself to be the artsy type and I guess I'm going to have to learn how to rub elbows with people I'm not really used to being around, so wish me luck. If anyone has any advise they would like to share I would like to hear for you.
