Welcome to my new weekly blog posts documenting my first 100 days of being a full time artist. 

This is my first week and blimey time has flown! So what's happened?

I made the decision 3 years ago that I wanted to become a full time artist. I drew up a 5 year plan with the help of the Design Trust and set to work on growing my business whilst holding down a pretty full on and demanding job. Despite the pandemic my business has grown to an extent that I've achieved what I needed to within 3 years to make that jump and give up the day job.

Scary? Not really. It's a big decision but it is a good decision.
