Lately, it depends a lot on which job and who I'm working for.
Mostly, I fix things, troubleshoot things and make systems work or show others how to make them work or what's wrong.
Mechanical or otherwise.
In Fumo Pax Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.
I go to my studio everyday and make stuff. Sometimes it's art and sometimes it's craft and sometimes it's both. I sell most of everything I make. Been doing it for 46 years.
Used to have a website when I was seeking retail sales. Most of my work is being handled by galleries now and they take half the retail. I let them do the promo. When I had the website I was using a professional photographer for my images at the tune of 50 bucks a image. Got to be pretty dear and 75 bucks now.
I also used to teach workshops but now I just do what I want. Must be getting old.

Do you have a website?
No he doesn't, sadly. Peer pressure hasn't been working either.
