Getting Started: The Anxiety Bug's Paradise

There are a lot of things that go into trying to create an art business. So many things that scare me. A website, safe ways to take payment, good enough pictures of my work, branding, a social media presence, figuring out prints, finding customers, taxes, bookkeeping, email lists, protecting my information, protecting your information... it goes on and on. I just want to make art. I don't want to run a business because it stresses me out, and I worry I'll make mistakes or worse - get in trouble.

But we're here. So, just know that if you are reading this, I am grateful you are here, and I am trying my best to do so many of the things that scare me.

Thank you for being here.
