Hope this is not too personal, but asking for guidance or wake up calls.
As of now, I have many potential creative outlets. Some I want to get back to, as I miss them. Have not done any paintings or drawings for a couple of years. Been focusing on the jewelry/lapidary.
Photography is limited to my cell phone. At one time, I owned a photography business that did well. Had a lot of great equipment. Still have most of it, but it is now outdated. Mostly 35 mm cameras and accessories.
I am partially disabled. Limited use of hands/arms. Have lifting/driving restrictions. Cannot sit or look down for more than 15 minutes. Some vision issues a well, which require magnification for close up work. This has caused a huge lifestyle change. For me, it takes more than 15 minutes to make most jewelry. Do wire wraps on stones. I start and then get back to them when I can.
I am able to work part time for a business, which helps with income. Also have my farm animals to take care of. Spend some time with my Grandbaby and his parents. Live in an uninsulated, 1902 farm house. No Air conditioning, which is hard in the Summer.
Just asking for some advice. Have posted some of my jewelry/lapidary works here, plus paintings/drawings and photos.
Appreciate any advice on which you feel I should concentrate on. Thank you.

I think you should still WORK at jewelry since you have put so much effort into selling it and then paint as a HOBBY/BREAK from doing jewelry.

Figure out what you want to pursue, then pursue it!
