Day 17: Arrive as a humble student, and your efforts come back to you in the form of marvelous personal transformation. Your transformed self will reward you with better choices, which lead to better results, which encourage better habits; those habits will compound into new neural pathways, and your thoughts will be shiny and new, yet unnoticed because we grow quietly and in small bits. This is the point of 100 days. This is a picture of Day 1, made 9 years ago. It’s awful but I had to start somewhere.

Day 1: Accept the body, not aesthetically, but as an embodiment of ideas, and the source of free will. Accept the idea of eternity it will help soften the blow of knowing that one day I will die. when it is time to go I will know that this moment also coincides with natures will because it is the moment when enough wisdom has passed from my body into the world. 2017 - 100 Days of Stoicism

Day 16: is it faith or is it reckless? Taking financial chances.

Would you have gone?

Day 15: Honestly trying to put it all together. If you’re feeling wild and want to put numbers in a worksheet the link is in my bio.

Day 14: This painting took a year to make. How much is a year of your labor worth? Of course, I wasn’t painting 8 hours, 5 days a week, but that’s generally impossible if you wish to make meaningful work. I haven’t sold it yet. Usually, the amount you invest correlates to a specific return. In this sense, making art is a major act of faith. Will the energy I put in ever be returned to me? Probably not, it is priced at $8,000. Should it be $70,000? In my opinion, yes, but that will happen when it reaches the secondary market, where the original buyer will reap the rewards. It’s quite a quandary.

Day 13: Keeping track of what you have is a primal instinct. Do you have a good method for inventory? I use excel, but if you don’t have that numbers is a good alternative. (It comes with your Apple laptop.) I list: Title- Shop (uploaded?)- Physical location - Photographed (for hi res images for prints) -Size - Price - Notes. This is a great way to see how much you’ve sold vs how much work you produced for the year. You can add galleries who have a claim in the notes section. It’s great to also easy to send out available work lists to buyers. It’s a lot of work on the front end, but very much worth it. Staying organized is how you’ll sell more! Shown: Cave Painting

Day 12: I think the biggest hindrance was letting my emotions make some decisions that my logical brain was in charge of.
Don’t forget the 10% rule, keep 10% for yourself. Life happens and we can’t always do that. It is what it is.

Day 11: The exchange of value. If you want to earn more money, you have to exchange equal value for what you will receive. For a lot of regular jobs, it’s pretty clear. Get this list of stuff done, and we’ll pay you. Artwork is funny in this context. You can’t fully predict the value of your work. You can see similar artists and copy their prices; this is what I did in the beginning. As I’ve grown its fluctuated both ways. As a collector, I’m not only potentially investing, but buying the feeling. This painting, I’ll wield you a sword made of feathers and saccharine curses, is about arming yourself whilst dealing with nice women. People are really good at pretending to get along, but we know that the inside doesn’t always match the polite exterior. As the creator of this painting, I am casting a spell in your favor. Sounds crazy when I type this out, but it’s the truth. So that is what you’re buying beyond just filling your wall.
