I Quit My Job... making it as a full-time artist in 6 months

At the end of February I made the scariest, most exciting leap of my life—I’m giving myself six months to turn my art into a sustainable full-time career.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve dreamed of a life filled with creativity, imagination, and beauty. Art has become my way of seeing the world—through a joyful, romantic lens that captures nostalgia, whimsy, and the magic of everyday moments. Over the past few years I’ve honed my art business while simultaneously working another job. As I entered into 2025, I spent time reflecting and goal planning, and I began to realize that I needed to make a change. My mantra has sort of become:

Big change inspires big change. 

It really impacted me when I thought of it and has continued to ignite me through the ups and downs of growing my art business!

So, I’ve set a challenge for myself: in six months, I aim to build my art business to 3 times it’s current revenue. I don’t have all the answers (yet!), but I’m committed and ready to document every step of this journey—the wins, the struggles, and the lessons along the way.

I’m inviting you to come along for the ride—whether you’re an artist yourself, someone chasing a big dream, or just here for the love of creativity. Let’s build something beautiful together.

Stay imaginative!
