Anyone who know me knows that I am a devoted Stevie Nicks fan! Her poetic music and lyrics have always resonated with my soul. When I opened myself up to joining several Stevie facebook groups, my whole world and business changed!
It all started with an invitation from a wonderful woman named Arlene Lewis to a private group, where I met the most gracious, sweet women! (and men!) Around the same time, I had designed a Stevie inspired wineglass for myself and done an oil pastel portrait of my muse as well. I posted them on the site, just to venture out, with no expectations and my business in turn took off. These wonderful women put my art store link in their news feeds without me asking, sent me orders and more compliments that my heart can probably contain! They told me they cried when they received my art, and they said they were my biggest fans! They encouraged me to put whimsical projects out there like top hats with brooches and feathers (which I will be doing soon!) They were honest enough to tell me that my prices are too low….(and they may be, but right now I am searching mostly for coins of confidence in my bank roll
I cannot say what it has meant to me to be able to embrace my adoration for Stevie Nicks through these women. (and I should note there are many men in the groups…so thank you to my Sisters and Brothers of the Moon)!! So thank you to
Arlene, Robbin, Julie, Lisa, Jennifer, Alicia, Brooke, Diane, Joan, Kathy, Lily, Linda, Susan, Alan….and all my other Sister of the Moon facebook friends! They have allowed me the comfort of embracing what I truly love and being able to express it in my artwork. I should have known all along (to quote Stevie) that this is where I would be able to “pick up the pieces and go home.”
