When I was first starting to make art, I was imagining my designs on products like fabric and stationery but I had no idea HOW to get there.
I spent hours (probably a total of days) researching online, trying to figure out the “best” ways to make a living from my art.
Why couldn’t someone just tell me what to do and how to be successful?! What I learned is that there is no best way, there is just YOUR way. And every artist or designer’s path will be different.
I’ve taken everything I’ve learned in the art business and licensing world so far, and wrote what is meant to serve as your DIY guide to licensing your art. I want to empower you to take your success into your own hands, and not let yourself or anyone else hold you back. I want you to feel like you have control in how your art is used in client projects, and give you the tools to understand the pricing, contract terms, and philosophy of valuing your work that comes with any project.
I’m overwhelmed by your response so far about the Art Licensing Guide. You have given me amazing feedback, and ideas for how I can continue and improve it each time! If you’re a surface designer, illustrator, graphic designer, fine artist, etc. and curious about the guide, see my new story highlight where I’m talking all about the nitty gritty details. Or, ask me any questions below, even just in general about anything and I’ll give you an honest answer Thank you! by @gabbychapin_photography
There is something really interesting about this creative journey…. you realize how much your style can change depending on what you are going through in your life, what your feelings are, etc. These bold patterns are what I’ve been up to recently, and I love them all. But if you scroll down my feed you will clearly recognize the different phases I’ve been through. Can’t wait to see what the next chapter will be and I hope you enjoy the ride with me ✨

Crafted by hand, all plants native to each region of this lovely state. (Swipe to see the full piece!) ✨ I’ve been talking with my artist / writer friends lately about “flow” and how we each get into the mindset that allows us to deep-dive creatively. For me, it’s list making! I write lists constantly to free my mind from stacked up to-dos, worries and reminders. As long as I’ve written down my lists on paper, I know they are accounted for and I can allow myself to carve out large blocks of creative hours with total focus.✌♀️How do you flow?
