Wheels Up

My website launched today! One might wonder why I titled this “Wheels Up”. Those who are in the Air Force or from an Air Force family (or pilots/pilot families of any type) will understand that “Wheels Up” is “taking off” for a flight. I have used “wheels up” for road trips and now for this blog.

I am an Air Force Brat. Our family began using this term for many accomplishments, not just for flying. It’s taken two and a half months to get this e-commerce website developed and published. I’m excited and anxious. I’m excited about this new endeavor. I’m anxious because I’m taking a risk. There are hundreds of artist sites and I’m not sure how well I will connect with social media sites and blog sites in order to develop a following. But, I am hopeful.

I am hopeful. I hope that people like and follow my site. I hope that my paintings can bring people joy and comfort, as they do to me. I have a tattoo that states, “Forward w/Purpose”. I believe this! We must be brave and move forward with purpose, no matter our age. Take risks, and move forward. Make choices, and move forward. Live your journey, and move forward. /per
