Hi everybody! Hope you are doing great. I have to admit that I struggled a bit with this post.  One of the reasons for starting this blog is to improve some of the skills that I know will help me grow, but I still don't have. Consistency is one of them, so here I am.  I aim to upload a new item to my shop each week and share a new post here. Last week I added a new listing to my shop but the week before I couldn't make it.  I was also caught up doing my taxes, which I totally underestimated and I am still working on😓😅. OMG! Being organized and avoiding distractions can be a real challenge! Luckily, I am uploading another listing today. 👀                                                     I enjoy creating abstract and colorful backgrounds with quotes on top.

For example, I am using Chat GPT in this post to correct any grammar mistakes and SEO optimization. I'm thrilled about the possibilities that A...

Hi! I'm thrilled you're here! Welcome! My name is Barbara , and I'm a professional artist and fashion designer . I've always wanted to have a creative life because I know that's what makes me happy. Do you know how people speak about ' flow '? Well, that's exactly it. I work as an art lead for a video game company , and I enjoy it, but my dream is to be an entrepreneur and create products that are close to my heart. I also want to be more consistent and learn new skills . I know that being a business owner or having a personal brand takes a lot of work, and many skills that I cannot even think of yet, but you have to start somewhere, and I think making an Etsy shop of digital products is a great start, and this is why: You can work on what you want to do, exploring yourself, your art, and your creativity. Even if I love my job, it is a competitive industry, and I have been feeling a lot of pressure lately to produce better work. That was draining my c...
