Jumping in but intimidated

Cynthia, you can always come visit! Yes, there is an O'Fallon, IL. I live on the western edge of St. Louis County though, which is an exploding area. As to my bravery, we shall see. I just might end up a sobbing basket case from the critiques. If you see me post again it's probably a good sign.

Terri, I went to school right down the street from where you lived at Washington University. You lived in a wonderful area. St. Louis is certainly family friendly and there is a lot of work to be had here but I have found quite a resistance to pricing that would be considered average in other cities. Normally, I would think that is just me and my work but I have heard the same from quite a few other portrait artists here in spite of the superb quality of many of them.

Well, I look forward to getting to know everyone here. Thanks for your welcoming words.
