Well the hunt for a job continues. I have gotten offers but need something flexible. As I am starting a piercing apprenticeship. I would love to tattoo but when I look at my paintings and my drawings I am not blown away. I think they are good and am proud of them but...I see so many artists out there who's work is good and even amazing, but I would not let any of them tattoo me. When I chose someone to tattoo me I want to be blown away by there work. So as I am not blown away by my own art I feel that at this time pursuing a tattooing apprenticeship would be cheating people and myself. I would hate to go into it and be forced to look back at my work on people and be saddened that I put out that quality of work. So for the time being I will stick to driving needles through peoples skin for a living ^_^
I miss Virginia beach and Maryland a lot. Being back in New Hampshire makes me realize how closed off and sheltered most of the people here are.
It's like people here are afraid to be different. Everyone runs around trying so hard to be just like everyone else.
P.S I leave you with this
The End

If you have more questions, feel free to ask.
Keep working on your art. 'practice makes perfect' is true. the more you do something, the better you get at it.
and then "maybe someday" you could get a tattooist apprenticeship, if you feel you are ready
This business is an awesome way to make a living, but you can't have a "get rich quick" attitude cause it ain't gonna happen. it's a serious business and a HUGE responsibility and lots of people don't look at it that way which makes me quite sad
I know I'm not alone and I am thankful for all of the wonderful friends I have that can help me through all of this. You included!
I will send happy job finding thoughts your way...
