I do understand the dilemma where you're living. My daughter recently moved back after securing a 100% remote job. Prior to that she lived in Orlando, just down the street from Disney Springs (so a really high rent neighborhood!) The money she paid for a studio apartment was ridiculous, but was close to her work and she chose the higher rent over commuting. It amazes me how much new construction is going in! How do they expect to fill all those apartments and condos on service industry wages is beyond my comprehension. Businesses should pay workers a living wage, period.

I wish you all the best with your new side hustle.

Wow, that's some great work there. What got you interested in painting abstract? I've never done abstract.

I love the vibrancy of your colors. Even if you didn’t explain or entitle each one, they would enliven a room of any dull wall.
