The die has been cast. I have put the building up for sale and am into "future possibility" mode. The idea of selling the building that I have occupied for 10 years, built my business out of, invested countless nights at and innumerable social challenges is somewhat bittersweet.
I do look forward to the new and unexplored idea of moving to the home property, building a new studio (and in some way regaining a bit of youth in doing so) and restarting the business under a new profile. Some things have worked, others have not. It's best to shed the old unworkable aspects of my practice and focus on what works best for me and my family.
The sale of the building will hopefully accomplish three things: 1) freeing my business from some unneeded overhead, 2) providing some needed cash for my wife's business venture, and 3) cash for redoing some things at the house that badly need fixing.
If we can accomplish some of these goals, it will be good. Stay tuned!
