 Hello Friends!

Welcome to another update on the life of a Teeny-Tiny Artist! 

I keep making progress, which is great!

There are two things I've been doing this time around that I haven't done in the past:

1. Posting pictures of works in progress
2. Art trades (these are great ways to get exposure because you tag them, and they tag you). The key with art trades is to trade with someone you know will want something in your niche (ex: you like cats and you know they'll want a cat). Just make sure you don't do too many and burn yourself out. 

And now another trip looms ahead, and this one is the longest of the three. I just hope that all this hard work and momentum I've been building isn't all for nothing. I'm not at the point where losing a few followers won't effect me yet.

Whenever I travel, I post a  drawing to warn people I'll be gone, and when I'm actually gone, I try to stick to posting black and white stills of the city I'm in in an effort to keep it as close to my niche as possible, but even then, I still lose followers! I do my best not to let it frustrate me, but it does. I mean, I work my butt off! I don't want my hard work to be for nothing. It's not like I normally post cats and am suddenly posting pictures of boats; I'm posting pictures of cat statues. Why are people so fickle? :) 

As I said, I'm working hard to get to a point where it won't matter. Here's to hoping I reach that point in the near future!
