Hello everyone,
I'm new to Wiltshire, about 14 months, new to woodturning , about 18 months and this is my first time on the forum.
In a previous life I was a creative advertising photographer, my work was published all over the world by various advertising agencies – so why aren't I still doing it? The biggest problem is that there is always someone out there to do it cheaper and most of Jo public don’t understand the finer qualities of what makes something of merit.
When I quoted on advertising shoots I would always aim to be the highest and it felt great to get the job, see my images published in magazines and posters and after a short period time get paid.
Never under sell yourself its irrelevant if its art or not when I was employed as a Photographer they were paying for 25 years or more experience.
My two pennath as a newbie . . . . . . . but what do I know.
