After reflecting deeply on my journey, I realised that when I was younger, I lacked the knowledge, skills, and understanding to turn my passion for art into a sustainable career. Like many artists, I faced the challenging reality that making a living from art wasn’t easy, which led me to redirect my passion for creating to become a graphic designer.

Things are a lot different from when I had to choose a career. It’s never been more accessible to make a living on your terms as a creator. The rise of the creator economy has opened up unprecedented opportunities for artists and creatives to share their work, connect with audiences, and generate income directly. With an estimated 50 million creators worldwide and a market valued at over €100 billion, we’re living in a time where people can build successful careers doing what they love, with far fewer barriers than ever before.

That’s why I’m giving myself a second chance to fully commit to my passion for art and work toward becoming a full-time creator. The tools, platforms, and knowledge available now make this the perfect time to dive in, share my work, and build something sustainable.

I’ve decided to document this journey, sharing the highs and lows, lessons learned, and my creative growth. This process of self-improvement and continuing to develop my skills in 3D art, video editing, and storytelling really excites me as a creative person. Through my Journal and YouTube channel (coming soon), I hope to inspire others by showing that pursuing your creative passion is possible and rewarding.
