What’s awesome about you is that you’re honest and you’re real and you’re a real artist I’m tired of fake people copying other peoples art and saying it’s really easy to do bless you

I'm 14 years old, and I love drawing small things. My mom always suggested I start making stickers or something like that. So, I considered it. But I didn't know how to start, plus it was also today when I started considering it. I'm HELLA SCARED, but once again, this would be a hobby and not a lifetime job, I tell myself. Thank you so much for making this video! It helped me with what and where I will buy my things. For now, I will start saving my money to afford the tools you've used. Thank you ❤

Thank you for this video Helen! As someone who really wants to make custom stickers, this video gives me good guidance and some motivation as well! What I take away most is how much you seem to truly enjoy it over the whole "business" aspect of it. That is what I am aiming for too! Just for the art to get out there! Thank you and good luck with your Etsy shop!

Thank you for showing us how you got started. Most videos I’ve seen everything has to be perfect but starting an Etsy shop is such a learning curve and so many mistakes and learning opportunities are made. Loved the video! Keep up the great work!

I just recently decided to start a shop because i want to help my dad pay bills and well, to help pay my college tuition n stuff. But i dont have art style yet..? I have some ideas because i always search for stationery that goes with my aesthetic but never find any so i kind of have an idea of what i want to do... just dont know where to start bc i have nothing. Not even an ipad to draw designs in. Pls help ... what should i do first?

@helenmabel5263 3 жыл бұрын

I would just start with a sketchbook! I still feel confused about my art style sometimes, but having a sketchbook helps me experiment with different styles. It can really help you figure out what you like to create. Also, if you don’t have an iPad, there are cheap drawing tablets that can be connected to computers through USB, or if you prefer traditional mediums, you could always create something and then scan it to get a digital file! I hope this helps!

Idk if this would've worked, but for the circle punch dilemma - maybe you could've used the circle punch as a guide and taken an X-acto knife and cut them while they're still held in the punch, that way it's like a stencil. I like your logo and I also like that you talk about your struggles. This was a super informative video and I really appreciate it!
