My First Airbrushing Attemps (Very Funny)

Posted by Melissa Smedley on Monday, September 21, 2009, In : Art Business 
I finally got to use my airbrush for the first time yesterday, and it turned out to be very fun. Difficult, but fun.

About Me


Melissa Smedley Welcome to my blog. I am currently a student in college, and I am trying to build my own leather craft and art business online. My goal is to eventually be able to make a living from my store, and to someday be able to make and sell custom saddles. This is a huge goal, but it's all about dreaming big, right? I am really very clueless about the internet world of business, and this blog is about my journey into this online world, and the discovery of myself in the process. Enjoy!
