Whether you want to be an artist or travel the world abroad; make sure you are doing what meets your priorities. Just because you want to travel, doesn't mean you are wrong. It is right for you. Making art is right for me.

Not all "Great Venues" are perfect for everyone. If they were, you would see crocheted salad forks at every show you did. Look at which displays that are getting traffic and think about how you might be different.

Excitement is for when the work is done and you no longer have anything to worry about.

Keeping your options open is fine but sometimes you can find yourself letting someone down that was really counting on you. You can burn some pretty serious bridges that way.
