I had little time to pursue my art, and was going through some ups and downs in my personal life. When I saw that there was a way to take my art and put it on products for people to buy, it gave me the impetus to create and submit some work! Even though I only made a few designs and they only sold a few copies, it was confidence-boosting for me.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Later I was able to collaborate with Ellen as editor of <a href=\"http:\/\/emg-zine.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><span class=\"il\">EMG<\/span>-Zine<\/em><\/a>. Seeing the writing and work of other creators, and working with Ellen to make their advice available to read, was inspiring! I value the time I spent working on the zine.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">When <em><span class=\"il\">EMG<\/span>-Zine<\/em> wrapped its final issue, I went on to pursue my fine art career. Since then, I have participated in several juried shows and had a couple of my own solo exhibits with my fine art &#8212; but I have also submitted work to the <a href=\"http:\/\/portraitadoption.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Portrait Adoption<\/a>; I\u2019ve popped into <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ellenmilliongraphics.com\/sketchfest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sketch Fest<\/a> now and then; and I\u2019ve submitted drawings to Ellen\u2019s coloring book projects.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I feel that my time with <span class=\"il\">EMG<\/span> really helped to give me the confidence to strike out on my own and pursue my own creative goals. Thanks so much, Ellen!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Thank you, Jennifer! Our partners and customers putting so much confidence in us over the years has enriched our business and our lives. It means a lot that we could give you confidence as well!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>Would you like to share your EMG Story with us and perhaps see it featured on our blog?
