Is discipline apart of your daily routine?

I love my daily routine as it helps me maintain my discipline as an artist and entrepreneur. Running a small business with an employee of one means I need lots of energy to do the many tasks needed to run a business.  Like any artist I will tell you that making art is more fulfilling than the business side. The discipline of making art has taught me how to buckle down to the more laborious tasks of, maintaining a web page, emailing and calling clients, applying to art shows, teaching art lessons, working with galleries, shipping, and engaging in social media. When my list of to do’s seems overwhelming I just focus on one task at a time and before I know it I am on to the second, third or fourth task. I have learned to put one foot in front of the other rather than thinking about how much I have to do.  This has helped me to conserve my energy for producing art rather than wasting it on worry and stress. My daily discipline is essential for my art business.

Below is a recent confirmation cross I created for a young man named Patrick. 

This was a fun piece to make. St. Patrick is certainly a colorful saint and not only was he a shepherd of sheep he was a great friend and pastor to the people of Ireland.

I have been privileged to make 10 of these for various children through out the country. If you know someone who you think would appreciate such a gift for baptism, confirmation, ordination or  for any special event feel free to contact me.
