Recently been seeing alot of smoms on here who own their own business. Just curious, without being totally specific, what type of business is it?

thanks!I could never make it just selling paintings because my attention span keeps me from finishing them on time for deadlines!I leave most of the painting projects to fellow artists that will show in my gallery.But I make a killing doing designs for companies and individuals.I've done interior decorating work as well for a few clients.So much fun being a jack of all art trades!

It really depends on the company.I like getting the flaky ones that have NO idea what they want and i get to do multiple things for them of my own creation.Most of them have an idea of what they want but I've been lucky enough to not come across the ones that breathe down your neck for you to do it EXACTLY as they envision it.

that is a great business idea!Do dessert runs and sandwhich runs!there's a company in my area that you place your order on their website under the menu of your choice,they go to that restaurant,pay your bill and deliver your food to you!It's awesome!
