Day 5: The business plan

Ultimately, I would like to make a business out of all this drawing and painting. There is a market out there, and eventually I will find it. However, for this year, I am aiming just to get into the groove of having a high output of creativity or in other words, being consistent. This year is also about researching the market and creating a general sources list to reference when I start putting the plan together.

Still working on the background
I did manage to read over the art business plan template I secured last year, and I will be tinkering with a draft over the next couple of weeks. The most immediate ideas outlined were goals, market and budget. Since reading it, I've begun to pay attention to artists' products, styles and where they advertise. In the back of my head, I am making a list of sorts. 

I know it's a long road but if I've learned anything in 10 months of unemployment - you learn to appreciate and even savor the process. I have a general goal, and have an open ended answer to what I envision, but I know that the process is where it matters. Cheers!
