I hope you find this video helpful if you're wanting to start your own art business! Would love to know where you are on your own art business journey if that's something you're doing 🌷
Congrats on working so hard and getting to where you are today Mimi! You do inspire me and I found this useful too. 😊
I feel like I'm in phase 2, I've had a year of building up the foundations, creating content and learning. There's still more to do but I'm starting to explore monetisation. Having just done my tax for the first time as a sole trader I was pleased to see I earned some money in the first year, but still a way off from paying the bills yet! 😅 Hopefully that will grow this year.
Thanks again for sharing your progress and insights. 🤗
This is so inspiring Mimi. Thanks for sharing all that info. I'm still at phase 1 as I haven't illustrated for more than a decade now. Still catching up with what I lost. I'm learning and will definitely follow you on making at least one drawing per day.. Good luck with your future girl..!
Thank you Mimi for your video! It is so inspiring! I’m in the first phase learning and experimenting with my digital art. But it took me a lot of time to make the decision, that I want to be a freelance illustrator someday. Actually your story encouraged me to make this decision, thank you very much!
I always love these types of videos. It's enjoyable to see each persons journey as they find their own way in their career.
I very recently decided to make my art into a career, something I put off ever since I was young... because of the 'starving artist' stereotype. Well, the internet makes that point moot, and makes art so viable now! I am 2 months in, learning so much as I flop around like a fish finding my M.O. for this.
Thanks for sharing the video ❤
I'm in the skill building phase. Trying to make time to draw more.
I'm a 58 year old who has only recently (re)decovered what she wants to be when she grows up. I found this video was very informative, helpful and inspiring! Thank you!
The same for me. I'm 42 years old. 💪
Same here! Good luck!
Me too! I’ll be 58 in a couple of months!
Never too late to start something.
This comment inspires me so much 🙏🏼 I’m in my 30’s, I’m working to “unlearn” a lot of behaviors and held views such as “If I haven’t figured out my life’s (singular) trajectory by now, I have wasted time/field.” That’s such a silly mindset, but it really does feel like that when one is in their 20’s, and even now sometimes try to sneak back in now..
This video and comments like yours help me see, it’s not to late to commit/begin again, there’s still time..!
Congratulations on finding yet another path to your life’s adventures! :) 💕
I like how you specify “every weekday” as opposed to “draw every day”. sounds like it gives you a sense of balance making art throughout your week.
Finally! Someone online who tells us directly what their strategy is and how it worked for them without the fog of vague nonsense. I see so many videos on 'how to become seccessful' (I know that's not what this is) and it's just babbling nonsense with no clear steps or valuable information.
This video made me realize that you have to have artist friends online as well. As an introvert, it can be tough making friends but I'm hit with the realization that in order to reach out to people you gotta learn to adapt socially.
The struggle is real. Especially since I try to simplify my life by avoiding most major social media platforms, so I don't really have any presence there at all or know how they work. Guess there's no time like the present!
@@ajetc697 yea but i feel like they have to be active on real life socials like actually networking with people face to face going to events etc
@@ajetc697 the thing is the only way to succeed without the social media is having those connections irl. But for most ppl networking in real life is even harder.
You can do it. I'm so introverted I never learnt how to socialise when I was young. Then, when I grew up, I realised I needed/wanted to make friends. My first attempts usually made more enemies than friends simply because I lacked any sort of social skill.
But it got better. I kept making attempts and learned to appreciate all kinds of personalities. Being a Christian made it easier for me because not only is it part of my belief that I should be sharing what I know to anyone I meet, but it also provided me the goodwill I needed to even attempt that, when interacting with other people is like running a gauntlet for me.
The more you socialise, the better you'll get at it, and the more you'll enjoy it.
It's a skill just like art and people like us who are not naturally outgoing need to practise more than others.
How about meeting other artists who are also introverts and be friends with them.
You’re art journey is such an inspiration, watching your videos truly motivates me to not give up on my dream to become a full time illustrator. I just graduated from uni, and I have been stuck in a huge art slump, mostly because I don’t know where to begin and it’s quite terrifying!
I've definitely been there before, it's so hard to know where to go! Just know that it's ok if it takes you a little while to find your path and it's normal to take a few wrong turns - nothing is a waste of time! Also, I used to think that everyone else knew what they were doing but I've learned as I've gotten older that we're all in the same boat and just figuring it out as we go along 😊
Don't give up! Keep making art and share online, do your best ☺️👍
You are very talented sweetheart ❤
@MimimooIllustration are you able to cover all of your expenses with the money you make?
Currently in stage 1 attempting to learn, plan and establish a routine, not to give up. It's lovely videos like these that keep me going, Thank you
Me too!
I know you said your journey is slow but you progressed in your career so quickly! Congratulations!
I’m a writer, but writing is also an art and watching this was inspiring for me. I think I’m on phase 1 still but that’s mostly due to procrastinating and distracting myself so much; when not doing so, I take in the effort on my writing skills and share them on accounts I have to get people to not only notice me but also the skill I wish to share on. It’s a career I can see myself take off in but, of course, the development in doing so is difficult. Watching this was both a motivation and reminder - that I got the skills for the bulls, the mindset to choose what can work for me, the capability as long as I stay focus, and will see the success in the end through it all. Thank you for this. Really amazing work and effort here 😊
Hey, I'd love to dabble in both drawing and creative writing myself. How did you become a writer?
As a 30+-year entrepreneur and marketer, I thoroughly enjoy your journey and videos. Personally, because I'd like to learn how to draw for fun, but also because it's wonderful to see your strategy come to fruition. It is so well thought-out, patiently and consistently executed with passion and sharing your lessons along the way. I can just imagine that phase 2 might have been the toughest as you had to have energy, patience and faith in yourself that all would prove out. And, you have! Congratulations, Mimi!
In my journey as an illustrator, I find myself between the first and the second: I'm developing my own drawing style and trying to build a community
I love telling stories that's why I'm currently working on my own webcomic ☺. I still haven't made any money and sometimes because of my emotional state I falter a bit in keeping up 😓, but I'm confident I'll be able to get by with this.💜
That's a great start, and a webcomic sounds like a great project! Keep it up and the money will come if that's something you want to focus on 😊✨
@@MimimooIllustration thank you 🤗
This definitely helps. I'm at the beginning stage of my new online store and a part of me wants to quit because of how difficult it is but I still want to do it. Appreciate you for sharing this. 🙏
I just started my Etsy shop and made my first sale, but I'm realizing I'm terrible at social media and posting regularly--but I like how you broke down your purpose for using each platform in a way beyond numbers and subscribers/followers. So I might spend some time after watching this thinking of ways to make it easier, goals, etc. Thanks for the video!!!
This video was not only insightful but so pleasant to watch. I love the way you break down business and marketing in a way that’s super simple and easy to understand. I know as creatives we can be so intimidated by these concepts, but you show that we can be creative and run a sustainable business, they don’t have to be mutually exclusive! Thank you so much for all that you do and please keep up the great work! ❤
Thank you so much! Absolutely, it doesn't have to be one or the other, it's just hard as a creative to know where to start with the business side of things!
Your videos are always so motivating, engaging, and help me kick away the imposter syndrome I have when trying to follow my own art dreams. 💕 I recently just left my toxic job to pursue my art biz goals full-time and I have never felt so excited yet scared in my life!! I’m currently in the early stages of just building up an audience and starting to setup other platforms so watching videos like this keeps me motivated when the voice in my head says it’s impossible. Thank you for your inspiring and amazing content!
Yesss so excited for you! It's definitely scary but hold on to that excitement and passion so that you can build the future that you want for yourself 🌷✨
I've been a freelance artist for 30 years and recently I realised that while I have been working in my business I've done very little work ON it. I'm now soaking up information to turn my career into a scaleable endeavour that'll keep going when I inevitably slow down. Thank you for being so clear and savvy so early in your journey. It's a great help. Onwards and upwards!
Such a nice comment to read! I'm in the same boat: 25 years as an editorial illustrator, but have never been business minded. I guess it's never too late to start! Onwards and upwards indeed! Good luck to you on the journey too;).
I'm halfway through the video and I had to say that I love how you've mentioned the timeline of things. It's so easy to feel rushed in the journey to success especially when you're struggling to make ends meet. Sometimes you need to be told that progress just takes time!
It's so incredibly comforting to see somebody else who likes to draw and sketch small and is still a successful professional artist (traditional artist here!)! I've watched countless art tip videos that push the notion that drawing small is inherently a bad thing, that bigger is better - especially in finished pieces - and I'm often insecure about the size of finished products of what I create. Of course I draw larger when I need to but I've never liked drawing super size. Thank you for that!
The most inspiring about your journey to me is how you took your own priorities into consideration consistently and acted in integrity without leaving your path. Thanks alot for being here and sharing and having shared your story,!
Not an art channel, but my sister and I are trying to set up a cooking channel. She's the charismatic chef and I'm the obsessive techie who just discovered a love for video editing, so. . . here's hoping! It was really helpful to hear about how you put together the different pieces to make a robust model - so many similar videos focus on a single (often brittle) platform. I wish you all the best and look forward to more insight into your process!
As a visual learner, this video was so so helpful. I'm currently in Phase 1 of my art journey. It's been a while since I've taken my art seriously but there's no better time to start than now. Thank you for making such a concise and beautiful video!!
I have just started my small business about a month ago. I'm from India and as a Indian kid it's hard. In just one month I have been judged by my friends for keeping the prices high and not receiving much customers. Although I know it will take some time to grow I still feel bad. But watching your video was really comforting. thank you for sharing how you grew your business 😊
*I sell clay jewelry currently*
I started my business as an artist with Redbubble and Patreon in 2019, Ko-fi in 2020 and DeviantArt Subscriptions in 2022. Although I have yet to receive income from these online platforms, I am still determined to make them a financial success. I have been improving my art skills and learning to run my business with online learning platforms like SkillShare, Paintable, Udemy and RUclips. Over a few years, my art has improved to the extent that I have to do Art Commissioning and Freelance work to help my family with living expenses and create financial freedom for myself. Thank you for your video, Mini. I am encouraged to take my career as an Artist and Animator more seriously.
Congratulations on your hard work and success, Mimi. Truly inspiring. And as an Aussie, I’m extra proud of you in a world dominated by artists from other countries. I’ve been learning digital art for a couple of years and feel like I’ve hardly progressed at all 😂. Have had a Redbubble store that’s done nothing and now setting up an Etsy store. I’m the example of your worse case scenario where at least I have a record of my work on Instagram and some beautiful new art friends ☺️. I was especially encouraged to hear how it took you a while to find your own style because I struggle with that but when I look at your work I see a clear style that is gorgeous and uniquely you. Thank you for sharing this and it’s also beautifully presented
Thanks so much for sharing your story, Alison! It's always lovely to hear from a fellow Aussie 😊 So nice to hear that you have some positives to take from your journey and I'm sure that you've progressed more than you give yourself credit for (us artists tend to do that a lot 😅).
@@MimimooIllustration thank you for your kind reply
Would you mind dropping your instagram name? Id love to check out your work!
I have realized my plan to become a full time artist has been living mostly above my head, floating around. Watching your video helped enormously by providing concrete guidelines and real life inspiration. I am an older artist with little abilities for digital medium. However I realize that just means learning new skills. And I can do that. Thank you, I’ll be returning to watch more videos to help keep me going!
Finally one realistic video about what it takes (hardwork and focus) to build something new and monetize!
Congrats to you and thank you for sharing your journey with us!
Love from Malaysia! Your video always motivated me when I was depressed! Thank you so much for creating these meaningful videos!
So glad to hear that! 🥰
apart from digital art, you also have an incredible knack for video editing!! This video WAS art, I’m curious if it was something you also had to discover/learn when you decided RUclips or was it something you had previous experience in? 🤩
I am about 5 months into my journey. I’ve been making RUclips videos and trying to build a community. It’s hard, but you have inspired me. It takes longer than a few months. Thanks for being so realistic.
Oh my goodness, your phase one sounded like you were narrating my current situation! I’m in Tassie, and trying to organise all the things! But I don’t live quite as simply, still have a day job and young children. I’m figuring this out in my late 30’s. I’m hoping to be in phase 3 in 1.5-2 years 😊 And definitely following you on all of your platforms from today 😊
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I really needed this. I've been trying to grow my art business with no success. I was getting so discouraged that I was about to shut it all down and just keep on going with my full time job but this video really inspired me to keep going.
Thank you! You have no idea how much I needed this, you made my day ♥
Congratulations on reaching some of your goals. I hope we can walk with you on more of your journeys to reach even more goals. 😊😊😊Thank you for inspiring me and so many!!
I’m only halfway through the video but knowing that you achieved your dream, made my heart so happy. Congratulations 🎊 Your art is absolutely beautiful ♥️ It would be my dream to create and bring happiness to others whilst earning a living. Thank you for sharing this 💕
I love that you say that you gave yourself time to learn the skills to master your art in 2-3 years. Im in that stage now and honestly, it has been so so many years since I drawn anything, and I want to pick it up again. With new things to learns and platforms to familiaize. It's so motivating to see your videos.
Really love the style of your videos. They are very inspiring to watch.
Your persistence is admirable. your journey is not easy at all. The fact that you never gave up and pushed yourself is so inspirational. Keep up your good work :)
I’m on the treadmill at the gym but I just wanted to pause to comment that I remember the first time I saw your channel was July 2021, on a road trip from Texas to California. I remember feeling so inspired but not so driven, for one reason or another… now I’m feeling more driven and have overcome some things since then. Still, it’s so badass to see you doing your thing and inspiring all of us to do something about our dreams. ⭐️
I am a baby/ infant in business. I just officially started my business, January 2022. Thank you, for this video!
This has to be the best video ive seen explaining the thought process and realistic timeline of how things came along. Ive been mulling and holding back on really starting a business. Your video has inspired me and im confident i can make it, its just nice to see an organic growth and your art is beautiful.
This was incredibly helpful! I opened my shop earlier this year and my channel got monetised as well, so I’m slowly starting to earn a bit from my art - nowhere near minimum wage, but it’s definitely encouraging and incredibly satisfying! Thank you for always being so open and transparent with these topics and for these beautiful videos🌷
You are one smart cookie!! I'm so impressed with your whole process and dedication!
I'm 54, been a print graphic designer for the past 35 years and I'm an illustrator of sorts. Meaning I only create illustrations every once in a while.
I love your idea of just simply drawing EVERY DAY. This is something I've known I should do for years now....but I'm yet to do it.
As far as me doing an art business...right now I'm just trying to explore what ways are available out there. So much feels "over my head". Technology and social media are like a train speeding off into the distance and I'm left standing on the tracks watching it disappear in the distance. 😕
Thanks for this because I’m at a loss where I should head in terms of my creativity.
Being a baker this video was so inspiring for me and I hope someday I'll be able to build a community and business of my own. Btw your artwork is awesome ❤
Thank you so much for this video! It gives me a lot of motivation! I am just starting out, and am on the phase 1.
Thank you for making people like myself feel less alone!
I’m on a journey to developing my art skills and I’m so glad RUclips algorithm brought this video my way. Thank you for sharing realistic and inspirational insights.
i love how you edited this 4:00, the art community is so nice !!
Hi, Mimi! just wanted to drop by and let you know that you are serving your purpose of giving positive vibes so well. Believe me or Not, but I've been hooked by your videos and I'm binge watching them since morning (its evening now as i'm writing this). Idk what but there is something so unique and beautiful in your videos, in your voice that is keeping me hooked. love the way your videos are edited, its an absolute delight to watch them, the way you combine it with illustrations and cute texts makes it more special. Thanks for being honest and showing the BTS so precisely. You are an inspiration. Very well deserved growth, wishing you the best of everything and I would love to meet and work with you one day. Feels like I've met an elder sister in you. Thanks for being here. Keep Growing and Glowing 😘
This is so genuine, so real and actually inspirational.
I'm currently at phase 2 and closing into phase 3. I knew from start it would take a good while starting and running my own business, and therefore I'm still fighting my way forward
Thank you for an informative and inspirational video! It gave me the energy I needed
This is amazing. I started doing art and RUclips in 2021 and I’m in stage 1, kind of stuck there.😂 I think if RUclips gave awards for slowest growing channel in history…I’d get gold🥇😂This video helped me a lot, I need to self evaluate…maybe I need to be more consistent and figure out what exactly do I want from my Art. Right now it’s just a hobby and for fun but what’s next? Thanks for your content. Much love❤
Your art is cute and comforting! I’m still in phase 1 or 2 of my art business journey, learning skills and slowly building an audience. It’s hard not to get distracted with my day job but we persevere!
Your videos are so fun to watch! They don´t just give an idea of how to make money as an artist but are also so lovely to just look at with all these cute little animations and their aesthetics. Thanks for putting so much work and effort into them ❤ I always get so excited and happy just by watching them 🤗
Aw so sweet of you, thanks so much!
helpful ideas , thanks for sharing
Thank you
Inspirational!! I am in phase 1- working as graphic designer and building up my skills with watercolor and oils! The social media aspect stresses me out
This is so helpful!! I'm about one year into my art business and still in the phase where I'm growing my audience while simultaneously improving my art skills. :)
I'm at the first stage. I was so nervous to even start or if I was good enough. But I'm glad there's so many other artists willing to share their journey because it gives me the confidence to start mine. Thank you so much for sharing!
I came across your channel recently. And I'm glad i did. You've given the push i needed to start working on becoming an artist. And be motivated through out the journey. Thankyou so much 🦋💟💖
Hi @MimimooIllistration I am an 18 year old Aussie girl who has finally started to take my art seriously to start sharing my stuff and hopefully grow a business. This was so inspirational thankyou so much for uploading this video. ❤
I am just starting out with navigating and learning how to use social media, learning video editing, (which takes up most of my time currently), and I am working on finding my voice on social media with a flow that works for me to post regularly and consistently. All while working on building my art skills. My main objective in the phase I am in currently is to build a good foundation for a functioning business. I really enjoyed this video and all of the information you provided! Thanks so much. :)
Can I just say how much you and Dan upgrade on the editing and beautiful effects?!? Love it! I think I'm in phase 3!
Aw thank you Daksha! Phase 3 is a great place to be, it's great to get to see you growing as an artist 🥰
I love how you explain the difference purpose of each platform. Most people will just repurpose posts and all social media account has the same posts. Thank you for sharing your art business journey :D I am on Phase 1 for years because I can't move on from choosing target audience and what type of business should I start doing. Nothing seems to stick. I feel so distracted and have so many ideas.
I'm turning 22 soon and I currently work fulltime as an inhouse graphic designer, with a passion for character illustration on the side. I'm currently in the stage where I start attending local art markets as well as conventions with my own booth, to get to know my target audience. This video helped me a lot to structure my goals even clearer and to set realistic expectations I can work with
Although I am not an artist, I really enjoyed your video and it’s so motivating to see your business grow 😊 I have also started web-development from scratch, I am learning to become a freelancer and my goal is being location-independent and living a simple, quality life. I am building my portfolio and learning new skills. Sometimes it’s hard and I am impatient but I believe it can work.
I have started from scratch too , and I guess I'm on the first phase , though I'm not gradual but your story inspired me a lot , I gonna go share my ideas even if I don't like it and gonna make myself feel comfortable with my art , Thank you 💕
This is really inspiring for someone like me who wants to have an art shop but i don't have enough knowledge and skills yet. Thank you for being real about your journey. ❤️❤️
As a uni student I'm still in phase 1 but I'm working on getting to phase 2! Thank you for sharing this video, very informative!
Thank you for such a clear, easy to envision and realistic look at a business path. I feel my own path was hampered by unrealistic expectations of myself and my business to succeed overnight. Love your channel and what you share! 😊🥰
OKAY!! this was my first video ive seen of yours and can i say this was sooooo informative. i literally took so many notes. ive been in and out with my art because im also an actress. its felt like im all over the place after i had opened my online store and then it got shut down because i wasnt practicing my art and being more proactive with the shop once it opened. Ive been rebranding and planning how multiple platforms & feed everything and this was so helpful!! thank youuuuuu
Thank you, this is such a helpful video. I have sold my art on Etsy in the past but I've lost my way a bit since having my daughter and want to start my art business up again. I've taken lots of notes and feeling inspired to get going. Thank you
I am a young artist, still in school, and I want to be a freelance artist when I’m an adult. I convinced my parents to let me have a RUclips channel and I want to have a shop as my next step. Im not expecting to have a shop or earn money anytime soon, seeing as I have quite a while to figure out what works best for me! I just discovered your channel and I think this will help a lot! Thank you for sharing!!!
You are an inspiration to many! ❤ All the best for everything that you wish to do! Love your videos! 😊
I think I’m on phase 2 of my art journey. Such a lovely video, thanks 😊
I have never thinking that i can actually be able to make a living from my art, i think that i really need to grow a lot as an artist to even think of making a living, but right now you have encourage me to start my path while getting real skills
Your video-editing skills are HIGH, thank you SO much for sharing your journey and experience
I love your videos. Besides being so informative, I feel like being mentored well by you through your videos. For me who has just officially started my full-time journey as an artist, your videos have been guiding me a lot. Thank you!
yees Mimi, always so inspiring to watch your videos! I just love being part of your journey it keeps me motivated and excited. I am slooooowly starting to make some extra money from my art, and I have been focusing on getting super clear on my plans for my business. So I am really at the beginning, but excited and determined. 🧡✨
Well...Usually I don't like all those "How I became..." videos because there is some luck & gloss over a lot of things, BUT your video changed something for me, I don't know but THANK YOU for inspiring me ! : )
love the way you are telling the whole process!!
Mimi! I just wanted to say thank you so much for making these videos :) They are incredibly helpful and inspirational
I started watching your channel in late 2020 that's when I started working on improving my art as well. Unfortunately I couldn't keep up with the schedule and stopped painting daily. But I'm super happy for you - you've come a long way! Congratulations and good luck with your art journey! ⭐✨
This is by far the best video I’ve found on this topic… thank you so much !
Mimi thanks so much for sharing your journey and being so frank about your story! It’s really motivating to see how you’ve grown your business 😮 you have a knack for explaining things simply!
You’ve come such a long way. Thank you for the value and inspiration, also congratulations on your book and success 🙌
I would say I'm at the beginning of phase 2. Took 3 years but that's because I had no idea what niche I wanted to follow alongside my ever changing art style in the early days. I'm just starting to get my footing now.
Video was so inspiring! In my mind that's some FAST growth! Congratulations!
Also you helped me out a little here, so I will be running to another video of yours for some more advice 😆🙏
Subscribed! I'm amazed at how you planned your journey and stuck it out! I'm sure it wasn't easy especially at the start, when it feels like we can't make a stable income from our art. That's what I've been feeling lately, as someone who's trying to transition into a full time creative sort of career. Thank you for sharing this informative and helpful video. It's encouraging!
I love your clarity!
This is so inspiring and helpful to not anyone just starting an art business but any business. Thank you so much and much luck on the rest of your journey!
Your videos are so well done, thought out, and informative!! Thank you so much for all your hard work!
Your art journey is incredible! 😍 Thank you for sharing - your videos really keep me motivated 🥰
Thank you so much for sharing your story and experience ❤
Mimimoo! Congratulations to you and your ongoing achievements. Love your honesty and your keeping it simple. You have inspired me to ‘go again’. Thank you. 😊
You do a really nice job of making things easy to understand breaking things down and making them visual for us. Love your style to share both your work and ideas and progress. Thank you for taking the time to help people, your illustrations are beautiful as well. x
Mimimoo thank you very much for dedicating all your time and make this video for us to know how to "make our dream come true" basically. You are a hero 🥰 thanks for inspiring me on creating my own art business. I will start to work on it, today. 💪🏼
That was a wonderful video mini ❤.
Am impressed and inspired by your journey ♥️
I’m so impressed with how much work you put into this one video alone - on top of everything else you’re achieving and teaching yourself!! Very inspiring!! I’m probably between Phase 1 and 2 tbh 😅 but I love how organized this video is - I’m definitely taking notes! 📝 ❤ and I’m a new subscriber! 🥹
THANK YOU for this video!!!! I've been struggling to get my art business going for a long time now! I really really appreciate all the time you took to clearly lay out goals and explain steps so people (like myself) who struggle with the starting steps have clear directions to use as a guide!!
Your story is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing it!
So happy for you! Thanks for sharing the journey.
Still figuring out my own art path
You’re doing such a good job with what you set out to do. You’re videos are always so informative, positive, and just enjoyable to watch. Also inspirational! I hope to be where you are one day as a full time artist as well. Thank you for giving us all of your little nuggets of wisdom !! 😊
