I NEVER Expected YouTube to Change my Life Like This!

Today, I'm doing a little story time and telling you guys all about the ways that YouTube has totally changed my life as an artist in only 7 months! It has made such a huge and beneficial difference to my life! If you are an artist out there and you are thinking about starting a YouTube channel, I highly recommend it! It has benefits you probably haven't even thought of! Also, I know this is my second "Talky" video in a row. I do have lots of art coming! I'm working on some longer videos as well as my shop launch, so I had to do quicker videos the last two week! Anway, grab yourself something cozy to drink and come on in to my Northwoods studio! Happy creating!
