I am working on the “thoughts, words, action” sequence in my life now…not only in my art business, although this applies to your “Blast Off” class too! Thanks Alyson 🙂

It’s so easy to blame someone else for when things go wrong, or even to not give yourself credit when something goes right. Thanks for the reminder that I am in charge of my own life, and I can change it/me whenever I want! Much appreciated. 🙂 I look forward to reading more! -Alli Bratt (@AllisonBrattArt)

This spoke volumes to me at a time when I’ve been ‘deep in thought’ about finding my ‘style’, figuring out what I want and where I want to go with my work. Thank you again!!

Thank you so much for supporting my own convictions! Just over the weekend, one of my representing galleries had a request from a client to purchase a work at a considerable price lower than the established market. The little bill-payer inside of my went…”Um, you’d better say yes.”…but then the much stronger artist inside me said, “Absolutely not. Your work is worth it, they are selling well, and the piece is unique.”
I didn’t accept the situation and the Artist with a capital “A” stood her ground, cited the reasons back to the gallery rep and told them to take care of it. It felt good, and right and I haven’t thought about it for the rest of the weekend.
I think it’s important to be strong in your values, convictions and thoughts and as my adopted father, Elder Tom Crane Bear says…(who is a lot older and was around before Jack Canfield stepped into the “wisdom” arena…). ”
Your thoughts become words, your words become actions, your actions have consequences, so you’d better be thinking only good thoughts.”
Thank you always, for your good thoughts and inspiration. You put the capital “A” into “ARTIST” for me, “A”lyson!
