What Do I Do?

As you can see, it has been a very long time since my last blog post. In the middle of another year with a sizzling summer, I want to update you. Soon this will be my third year as a textile designer on the made to order gift website, Zazzle! Textile designer... what is that? Before you Google it, let me explain. I am a graphic artist that prints my art on the surface of objects like paper, plastic, wood, glass, cloth, etc.

Over these three years, I learned so much as an independent artist. I have to admit, last year, I did not know the formal name of my industry. I though more of myself as a graphic designer that makes unique customizable gifts. Gift design is what I do, but I have learned the formal names of my art process are textile design and surface design.

Somewhere in my busy lifestyle as a super hero, designing gives me an outlet of expression. Even though my inspirations come from many places, my family truly inspires many of my designs. I am greatly humbled that people choose to make my art part of their memorable life moments. I hope to make their creative gift experiences even better as I continue to develop as an artist.

By the way, that is me in the picture above. Not the mannequin but the short green mermaid-hair lady next to the mannequin. It is a funny post on Instagram. You should take a peek. Follow my blog with Bloglovin

The second option works best for me, and it can for you too. Here are two major reasons why you should plan for the holidays ahead of time. via GIPHY 1. Stress Free Off Season Sales Sure you can wait for those big fall or winter seasonal sales that everyone waits for: Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and the end of the year sale.  via GIPHY But often times, items are limited that are on sale, and the frenzy of shopping often just makes you tired.
