My photography has to fit in with everything else, but is my main creative outlet.... I would love to be able to make some money from it as retirement approaches!

 

Barbara Leigh Art

I don't call it a business until money is being made. My art is a fully time consuming venture and I want to get from it at least as much as I put out with the ideal of an overflow that can provide the lifestyle that I think most average American's have in this day and age.

 

Christine Dekkers

Interior Design, adventure photography etc. I have been able to sell some of my FAA friends art as well as mine with Interior Design.
