It’s been a week “Officially” I became a full-time artist. I always know that I live life by using my creativity. My first artistic decision was when I decided to go to an art college. Back in the day, I practice composition, technique and developing voice. It was the hardest thing to know what I wanted to say. Art is a tool of self-expression, and I didn’t know what to express when I was 18 years old.

After graduating the art school, it was no art career. Eventually, I enrolled the college again and studied graphic design. 

It was significant to use my skills and earn a stable income. I also liked the limitation of creativity as a professional designer. I didn’t need to prove to myself to my boss or clients how I am creative. I have a painting for that. 

When I was working as a designer, I learned

• Time management
• Self disciplines
• Collaborations
• Business and Marketing

Eventually, My passion won over the conformable stable job to a new adventure. 

It’s been a week, and I love it. It’s total control and freedom. I hope I will never go back to the cubicle.

I did it. I finally did it. I made it official to quite a corporate job and pursued my dream to become a full-time artist. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time; however, the situation wasn’t right. Giving up financial security is hard.

Countless thinkings, chatting with close friends and reading many inspirational books made me finally pull the trigger.

I know, I know it’s not the end of life. I can always go back to a secure job. Thanks for the experience and skills I developed over 10 years. Nice to have a backup plan yah?

I have an unconformable feeling of the unknown, but I am more excited about what I can accomplish with my art. Having all time to create art sounds just wonderful.

It’s all up to me now. 😀

I believe that what you focus on expand.
