This is my first video upload and it’s all about my path into starting with illustration. I’m also including some tips or steps I went through that I think might be helpful if someone is thinking of having a creative business or thinking about how to start. I cover a bit of different ways to make money as an illustrator at the beginning.

In the video I share a bit of my background as well, where I studied illustration & Arts, something about how I managed to achieve financial stability to a point where I was able to earn enough from my illustration and quit my job at that time (I also talk a bit about the topics of my future videos)

I would love to have your feedback. I know there’s a lot of room for improvement but also, I would love to know if there’s something you might want to ask or see in future videos.
