When you buy from an independent artist
you are buying more than just a painting or a novel or a song. You
are buying hundreds of hours of experimentation and thousands of
failures.
You are buying days, weeks, months,
years of frustration and moments of pure joy. You are buying nights
of worry about paying the rent, having enough money to eat, having
enough money to feed the children, the birds, the dog.
You aren't just buying a thing, you are
buying a piece of heart, part of a soul, a private moment in
someones life. Most importantly, you are buying that artist more
time to do something they are truly passionate about; something that
makes all of the above worth the fear and doubt; something that puts
the life into the living.
