I think that boat has long sailed without me, have you seen how many colouring books there are on the market? It's annoying as I did think of the idea about 4 years ago and dismissed it as I really did not think that adults would want colouring in books...Now I dont think I could get a foot in the market and I am pretty sure that the artists that producing a lot of the drawings get paid peanuts for their work, even if I thought I could find the time.

I love them, I really do. Of all the art you create, the drawings are my favourite. I think you could turn them into cards (for birthday etc). Are there any shops in Weston that sell that kind of thing?
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
There probably are but I am crap at selling my products, much better at selling my services and I am not sure I can find anymore hours in the day to work on getting the cards made and promoting them. I sold a few as christmas cards last year (not put those designs up as I want to be able to use them again for cards to sell this year and dont want people pinching the design) in fact I think I sold all the cards I made last year.![]()

You can put the designs online with a watermark over them to stop people pinching them. I suppose you could sell through ebay, etsy?
I know you don't have a lot of time on your hands. What is H like as a salesperson?
I have added the two christmas card designs from last year to photobucket. I think I will need to do new designs this year anyway.

They sold cos they're stunning![]()
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
