i was 26 and in a really rough spot in my life, very much rock bottom. So I prayed for some kind of sign or way out, and I started getting all these signs for Nashville. And I’m not a superstitious person, but the “signs” were impossible to not notice. Like, I told a friend about it and she said “I was just about to call you and ask if you want to come to nashville for some meetings this week, I felt like I should bring you.” Anyways thru that connection, i got a job at a nonprofit here.
But here’s the advice: my life SUCKED my first year here. My roommate was awful, I was anxious and I actually missed home. I didn’t know anybody in Nashville why had I done this?
But I stuck around and got thru it and now I’m at so much peace. So I guess, moving isn’t even the hard part sometimes. It’s staying. But I think one year can tell you if I the worth it to stay or find someplace else. But ya just gotta do it.

maybe it’s elitist and privileged to not support mass produced art and that art takes time and artists deserve compensation and cheap or affordable art isn’t always available okay I get it.
BUT!!! there are also so many artists that are new and upcoming that can probably sell affordable art as they make their way into selling higher priced items.
so can we avoid mass produced art and buy from budding artists that aren’t crazy expensive?
if so, how do we find them?? (The example provided is a Russian art collection my aunt bought in the 80s that, unfortunately, never sold well).
