Starting Over

This is a piece I relisted on my etsy site today. Im hoping it posts here ok. So bringing everyone up to date, I can start by saying that making pottery has been becoming difficult for me because of severe arthritis, so I am taking a marketing course and trying to learn how to sell on line. I have had my Etsy site for my pottery for a while, but not as active as I should be, so trying to change that some too. Starting over can be difficult at any age, but when you become a senior, lots of us go through major life changes. Change is always hard, but learning all new has proven to be a challenge I am going to overcome. First off, I strive to write more. By putting my thoughts to paper it makes them more real, more solid ideas and goals. So what are my goals...... I will continue my brick and mortar shop, Clay Potential Pottery, in Riddle, Oregon, but now I will offer more painting with acrylics on paper & canvas. I can also hire other artists as my guest to teach a class Ive planned for my high school class. I remember enjoying watching different artists show us their thing, so to speak. I believe you can learn a lot from a lot of sources throughout your art filled life. I teach three days a week - two high school classes and 1 adult classes. And on other days I will be learning marketing
