9 Years Ago

Now I've Hit A Mark...

Almost 16 thousand views, over 200 pieces of artwork, 4 sold images, and finally 100 followers. All in under 6 months....

I am so glad I joined this site! I had seen a lot of people saying that they have not gotten anything from it and I was worried that that would be me as well. Though I am blessed enough to be able to have sold 4 of my images (check out the gallery to see which ones) and I hope to sell more. Thank you to everyone who has been here to support me!

Just keep in mind that some on this board don't have those kinds of numbers. Not everyone sells. Just as I suggest not to get overly negative about their lack of sales, I would suggest to also not appear overly excited. It could come off as bragging.

But, anyway, congratulations.

Not bad, Shelby. Most importantly you are motivated to keep shooting. Practice, practice, practice.

 

Congratulations! You are doing all that by talent and willpower to succeed.....full marks.
Let lesser mortals be inspired, not jealous.
Happy to support you. Nice attitude!

Congratulation I love hearing from other that FAA works for them. A little bragging is ok.

Thank you so much everyone! I am both grateful and surprised :) @Joseph, I was not trying to come across as being "shove it in your face" kind of boastful. I was only excited and wanted to share that excitement with you all :)

Persistence is the key, and you seem to be off to a great start. It's exciting to see a 15 year old off to such a great start, and already so focused. Stick with it, and I think you will have a great career!

Congrats, that is awesome

 

To the ones who think she's being boastful, no disrespect meant to you but come on, cut her some slack. Let her enjoy this moment.

In a time where many young people her age are doing silly stuff like getting into drugs or getting obese sitting around wasting time playing video games, it's good to see her doing something creative and constructive......and doing well at it.

Congrats Shelby. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the numbers it does give some perspective which helps. Sometimes its a fine line, you know we work hard and get excited to share the news which may come across as bragging to some. I think it depends on the person and if there saying it purposefully to be hurtfull. Thanks for being excited. I know I get excited after working so hard.
