I’ve been an art teacher for the last 1o years (if we don’t include my 2 year hiatus). In that time I’ve been able to grow as not only an educator but also an artist and business owner. My career has allowed me the flexibility to create all day long, take breaks, lead, examine what works through trial and error and stay on my toes with young people all around me. I started my art business in 2016 hosting paint parties. I extended my business in 2019 by selling orginal art and in 2020 by selling art merchandise through drop shipping. Drop shipping is what changed the game for me and brought me so much confidence as an artrepreneur. It’s allowed me to gain collectors outside of just wall art. You’ll find that not everyone wants to express their appreciation for your art in the same way. Ultimately, they shouldn’t have to. The process of drop shipping your art merch to your consumers takes away the hassle & is a way to create extra income without all the headache. Ease was my desire and I want it to be your reality.
