Thanks Asia! I am one of the lucky owners of a couple of your prints, which I love as they are so beautiful. In terms of your shop experience, I agree. I closed my shop last year too as it was getting to much for me. I also have so much stuff still stacked throughout my townhouse/duplex from then. This stuff includes items such as product packaging, postage packaging, prints, stickers, cards, etc. This now equates to so much of a waste of money, just to save a bit of money in the first place. My advice to anyone now would be to NOT fall into the trap of trying to save a few dollars/pounds, etc. as one never knows what the future holds and it, like it did with me, may turn into a HUGE waste of money. I learned some BIG LESSONS from this experience though. 😊

So nice to hear about the prints, thank you!:)💙💙💙 and so right about the shop products, they tend to linger afterwards, unless you have a great product strategy, that normally takes a lot of time and dedication to develop and upkeep. At the beginning, opening a shop is an investment so I’m not surprised we both decided to opt for a more economical options:) But at the same time, after having the full experience, I totally second your recommendation to be sensible with the purchasing decisions and test the waters slowly, there’s always time to go big:)

Asia, thank you, this video was perfect for me, because I am on the fence about opening a shop. Your point about how a shop can become a burden is what I am trying to explore in my dream of my shop, I wonder if I really like the shop “process” or, am I just in love with the idea? Sharing your experiences in your videos has been so helpful for me to question myself on a deeper level. Of course I realize that I will never truly know until I get out there, but opened eyes before the leap seems a better approach to me! Love your videos, always inspiring and interesting!!💫🤩💛

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful comment! I really appreciate your words and am so happy my videos are helpful 😊 I totally get it, there’s a lot of things to consider and for many of them, it’s true that only your own experience will allow you to reach certain conclusions. Running a shop is great, but it’s crucial to have enough time organized for every aspect of it, like marketing, designing new products, their production and distribution, all of that with costs in mind:)

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Asia! ❤ I'm just starting my career as an illustrator and I'm thinking about an online store. I've done some research and maybe I'll try a few print on Demant options. But, yes! it is a lot to think about before even start, especially where you want to spend your time and energy as an artist. ❤
@AsiaOrlando 2 күн бұрын
Definitely, there are so many decisions to make, especially at the beginning! A shop can be such a great addition to your business or in some cases be its core, but depending on what each one of us is looking for, it’s definitely not a must:) All the good energy to you & your first steps in the illustration world💙

I spent weeks working on an illustration in Procreate, the resolution is fine and it’s in cmyk but when I printed it the colors were dark and I don’t know how to remedy this. I’ve been an artist for most of my life and this format is the one that I feel most like giving up on. It’s nearly impossible to get a good result. Can anyone offer any real advice?

I always fear the ugly drawing in my sketchbook, and really when we think about it, what does it matter? That extra pressure we put on ourselves doesn't serve us! I love your sketchbooks Asia, and especially the blue pencil sketches. I quute like that idea of just sketching in one coloured pencil...I mught try that to loosen up my sketches and try to focus more on the practise and less on developing something in so much detail from the get-go. You are quickly becoming one of my favourite artist and teacher...can't wait to start the Domestika course of yours I just purchased. Thanks Asia🩷🌸👌

Have been once. Quite a few years ago now when I was still a student. The Illustrators Guild of Ireland sends a group and Children's Books Ireland and some of our publishers have a stall there each year. When I went I was pretty early in my time as an illustrator but I had a solid portfolio and printed a really nice portfolio book to bring a long. (I lost this book on the second day and had to print an emergency back up one) The event is huge, very corporate, seems like every company under the sun has a stand there. Definitely a big trade and rights buying thing. The illustrators kind of feel like little flies buzzing around all the big business. It's a valuable event for students to attend to just see how big this world really is. It's not a place you're going to pick up work from. The Illustrators wall is a bit of a token thrown out to get students and the likes to buy tickets and come along I think. I imagine a lot of material ends up going straight for recycling at the end of the fair. It's overwhelming. The lines for portfolio reviews where usually huge but I did manage to get some talks and sit downs with some people throughout the days. I felt some were just bored, some were probably told they had to do it, some took a little pity I guess. You know it is long days there for everyone involved. I was also a bit more shy back then but I now know it would be a great event to meet up with other illustrators from all over that you might only know from instagram. In the evenings the Irish delegation of illustrators would socialise and I was allowed tag a long then. One of my tutors at the time was also in this group so that was nice. In short, take a nice holiday in Italy and maybe pop in for a few hours to meet some illustrators of art directors etc that one might know from online but who are rarely all in the same place. I don't think any developing illustrator would ever need to go to it. Thanks for the review!

Can you join as a self publisher? I thought not. And it costs a lot to build a company and pay for the stand. Is there a list of companies who join to this fair somewhere?

Hola Gabriela, gracias por compartir! Creo que asistir a eventos de este tipo para un artista, es una de tantas opciones para conectar, buscar clientes y oportunidades. Aunque el networking en persona se considera mucho más efectivo, a veces en un ambiente tan abrumador y lleno de gente no se logra conseguir resultados :(

Hola Asia 🙋♀En caso de que vayas nuevamente a la feria, creo que es muy útil contactar a las editoriales con anticipación y que consigas una cita. Así se puede aprovechar mejor el tiempo, hay gente que lo hace con meses de antemano. De igual manera, también es bueno llevar maquetas de proyectos que quieras publicar, no sólo portafolio. Qué ganas de estar ahí :) espero hayas comprado muchos libros <3 Un abrazo
@AsiaOrlando 2 ай бұрын
Hola Estefanía gracias! Las citas con las editoriales son principalmente para recibir feedback sobre tu portafolio. No tanto para poder presentarte como una profesional y hacer un poco de networking. Por lo que vi, los representantes de las editoriales están alli para vender, pero no tanto para comprar, ya sea proyectos o ilustradores. A lo mejor en el caso de ser una autora que se auto publica, unas citas puedan servir más 😉

Ah... It's great to have found someone who has been through the same tests that I was! : ) I also spent a long, long time trying out professional print houses, and testing printing at home. Only to end up printing my own stuff on demand, same as you, in order to get the quality I wanted. It costs so much time and money to find the perfect combo of: printer, ink, paper, suppliers, quality, and price. And for everybody's artwork it's different, as you say. : ) It was expensive and time-consuming, but ultimately I am very happy with the quality of my prints. Thanks for the great video.
