It's All In Your Perspective...

4/12/2014

It's a beautiful day and I've promised myself minimum work and the shortest of posts. I found a great quote, which pretty much trumps the old, "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade."

You can complain because
roses have thorns,
or you can rejoice because
thorns have roses.

Ziggy

...and that's my outlook for this weekend. Nothing is getting in the way of just enjoying the day, spending time with Sheila and feeling unbelievably lucky to have so many of you in the "family"! Thanks for your support, your encouragement and never-ending feedback.

Have a terrific weekend and as always, hug somebody you care about!

Need Help With Pricing?

It's not rocket science and profit isn't a dirty word. Bad pricing is one of the most critical mistakes artists make.

Help is just a click away. Check out the previews for Skip's Lynda.com series on "Starting a Photography Business" and "Pricing."

"Why?"

Check out "Why?" one of the most popular features on the SCU Blog. It's a very simple concept - one image, one artist and one short sound bite. Each artist shares what makes the image one of their most favorite. We're coming up on 100 artists featured since the project started. Click on the link above and you can scroll through all of the episodes to date.
