Welcome, I’m glad you’re here!
I have worn so many hats and had so many jobs. I’ve been a server, a cigarette test subject, a promotional rep, a costume designer, an industrial designer and lately an artist. It took me a really long time to build up the confidence to pursue art as a career path. But it has been a secret goal since I was a teenager.
Why am I blogging?
Im starting this blog because I want to find a way to connect with my audience without using social media. I want to write longer posts and really tell you what’s going on with my creative process. And I want to connect with people around some common themes that I think we all share. Like work-life balance and figuring out creative goals. And to be fully transparent, I hope that some of my readers will buy my artwork as well.
I firmly believe that to be a great artist takes hard work and practice and that talent or innate skill has little to do with it. I hope to inspire you to keep working hard and connect with me on that journey. Or to inspire you to express yourself through the art you collect.
What will I be blogging about?
The things I blog about will be art-related. But because art is so tied to overall wellbeing I will likely be writing about the things that have helped me to become a better artist. Things like; mindfulness, minimalism, work-life balance, creative inspiration and of course, process and studio tours. Im also a person that lives with chronic migraines so, some posts might relate to how I stay productive despite this.
My goal is one post a week. Though because I do have a full-time job not related to this blog I give myself permission (and give you warming) that it might be less than that.
