I believe I can do something new... I'm on a journey. And this year I'm trying something new. It's tricky to try something new. You have to veer onto a new path and just believe that it'll be a good one. Troublesome thoughts like to creep in ... "What if it's a bad idea?" ... "What if nobody likes it?" ... "What if it is all a waste of time and money?" ... "What if it is too hard?" ... "What if it's too much work and I can't do it all?" Stop. I tell myself that I can't think like that. Those kinds of thoughts are the rocks in my new path. I have to jump over them and keep going. If I don't, I'll be stuck in the path and I won't be able to move forward. And so... Here it is. I am trying something new. (Deep breath. Smile.) I've decided that I should release my new work under my own name. It feels odd to step out from behind the MinneBites name. But, MinneBites will still be around. I love working on my MinneBites designs and I will continue to do so. However, as I learn and grow and work as an artist, I feel that I should sign it as my own, so to speak. My plan is to debut my new work at the American Craft Council Show in St. Paul this April. It's a very large, very well-regarded show that I am extremely honored to have been accepted into. And yes, it's freaking me out a little bit, too. I would love to have you follow along with me on my journey! Join my mailing list so you can be kept up to date. Note: This post was transferred from my old website.
