My First 6 Months as a Full Time Artist

This is the story of what my day to day life has been like now that I've quit my job to become a full-time artist and make a living doing what I love: making oil paintings. I'm also sharing the time lapse of a really special commissioned oil painting, and talking about the steps you can take to go full-time if that's a dream of yours, and sharing a ton of resources that keep me productive while painting.
