Yellow Brick Road of Illumination Painting

First of all I want to thank whoever is reading this that you have made it this far to somehow stumble upon this page of mine. I have been trying for so long to catch a break on anything this world has to offer when it comes to making money and usually fail miserably. A common man would have probably given up by now but thats not what faith is all about. I love to paint just because I had never done it before but the very first time I picked up a paint brush, I have been absolutely obsessed with it. I have spent so much money on canvas, paint and brushes that its sad and I did it because its something I enjoy. I have tried to sale my art but I always end up giving it away. I'll be real, I actually have no idea why art can be so costly ... "its the quality" yadayada i get it but it still makes no sense why it can be affordable. I also understand the uniqueness of it all and who created it may be a factor of it as well. I cosign to getting paid, but thats not why I paint.. I do it because I want people to be happy and feel special about something I created for them...whether it was premade or custom made.. if I did it for you, best believe I made it with love! Anyways. If you like what you see and dont like the price, please talk to me about it. I may be low balling myself, but I've never been rich before so I am not missing out on anything. Happiness is far more worthy currency to me! If thats not what you wanted to know about me, in short I am 30 years old married to my best friend and copartner of CrypticxCrationz Lee. We are from Alabama but recently moved to Colorado. I love God, music, to write and paint and to make people laugh. Once again, I had to place my work for sale with the minimum amount that was suggested. It would be a miracle to ever receive that much money for anything I ever do, but I have never been given the opportunity to be in this position to sale my work nor do I really understand that world... I just wanted to do what I love for a living and pay the bills doing it.
