She has also received a number of awards, but the most important thing I see in Lydia as an artist is the joy and perseverance she brings to the craft. By continuing to do what she believed in Lydia is able to sell her paintings for the type of money that we mentioned earlier, while in the mean time, the most I have made off a single painting is $200. Under Stephen King's definition of someone with talent, we are both are talented since we both received some type of monetary value for our artwork, but the amount does not mean one is more talented than the other, although someone with an ego may beg to argue. Lydia simply never took a break and never gave up, knowing it would be her career, she went to school for it and made it her life goal which is why she is where she is today. If you are anist who aspirest to do it for a living, miss Parish is your ideal role model.
