There are definitely pros AND cons to working for yourself. I try not to think about the negatives too much ... afterall, I think it cartoon form most days! There are days when I get going on artwork and realize I haven't brushed my hair yet and it's 2 p.m.! There are days when I am running around doing family errands, taking the kids to the dentist, making supper and realize it's 6:30 p.m. and I realize I've done NOTHING that makes me money! But then there are days when I hand over a painting or drawing or paint a little girl's face at an event, and get artistic praise (not to mention getting paid!) ... and it makes it pretty sweet!
