I’ve been very quite in the art world over the summer, working on a few things behind the scenes here and there, but mostly just taking a huge break and not forcing myself to create when I don’t totally feel like it, and I’m really glad I did! There were definitely times where I felt guilty for not creating, and questioned whether I could call myself an artist when I haven’t drawn in months, but I continuously reminded myself of how silly these feelings were. Thanks to this long break, I’m feeling ready to jump into the winter and utilise the increased demand for products over the festive season, as well as more cosy nights in creating.
I’ve already hosted 2 market stalls to get back into the swing of things, made note of techniques to improve each one, and booked plenty more leading up to Christmas! I’m hoping to purchase a few things to jazz up my displays, as well as investing into new stock, which I’ll be sharing more details about super soon.
With this increased momentum of planning markets and creating new products, I’m also hoping to get the ball rolling again with the many different social media platforms and start posting more regularly again to engage customers. So to start that off, here’s a post to say I’m back!
