One Small Step

After browsing through many options of online subscription services to help me place my art shop merchandise into attractive settings, I decided to just go manual and ordered a portable photoshoot light box. On credit, with 9 months installment so I can afford to pay for it every month. I will use my phone and edit with a photo app I already have. So I can finally post and sell.

I will start with the bookmarks. Then the magnets. Then the note cards. Then the small framed artworks. Then the postcards. Then more.

A box for make believe. Because honestly there is no space in the house, even a small one, that could provide a decent enough background setting with enough light. I live in a fast deteriorating house. I couldn't afford to move us out yet but I have been wanting to. I want to move outside the Metro Manila. Have a real food garden and enough space for all the cats. I want to learn to drive again car again but also I want to learn how to ride a bicycle.

Right now I am very, very far from everything that I want and everything that I need.

But for now this one small step. A photo light box. A small solution. A way forward.
