Part Two:
Ask questions, sheesh, never be afraid to ask questions.
Don’t be intimidated by people, they had a first day in kindergarten as well, don’t let people fool you. We all have a beginning to every single thing.
Compare your information with others and define your own set of standards that you want to allow as part of your artful deal making.
Feel good about yourself. You have worked at your technique and it has cost you MONEY to get to where you are. Brushes alone are quite expensive.

A creative way of explaining to your special someone what they actually mean to you is by writing a “Special Person” poem.
