reflection

5 weeks to go. Must admit it has been quite stressful working toward the target alongside the course assignments, day job, house chores and all the other stuff, but just started to see my first goal a little clearer. I wonder how on earth the other people do manage juggling them all. Certainly it’s been a huge learning curve to me, leaving lots of questions and action plans. I am still making some stuff and testing colours etc, but as for colours I have miserably failed the test so this will have to leave to the next opportunity. 
Anyway, about 1/3 of these HANETSUBO work will have ‘gold’ wings in coming week. Now I need to link to my course work too, by sorting out the marketing materials, packaging, portfolio, presentation and the most difficult horror - pricing. Help! xm

    MMM, I Love Gold!
    A word about the pricing (fyi: I work as an independent art advisor): simply feel free to browse the prices of the competition as a starting point. Calculate your "working hours" and material costs. Never price to low, keep in mind that you are an artist who put a lot of effort and artistic value into each piece!
    Good luck ;-)

    Pricing is very difficult for me too. I went out to check the others'.
