I still have a few calendars left (2). I am now offering them at $17 each + s&h (they were sold at $20).
I had really nice feedback about them.
I will be honest and for all the month of January, I have been pondering whether or not keep Inner Worlds open.
Because it is hard to market myself without feeling like I am beothering every people I know and every social media I am on when I am putting something new out there.
Because even if I do follow my guts when it comes to offer something original like my Nixies' Subscriptions, the lack of positive response (ie. sales) is kind of depressing.
Or I am expecting too much ?
Even with special events and coupons, it does not boost the interest.
I am coming out a period when I doubted my art a lot. Wondering if it was too bad, too expensive. too different maybe. And the answer I received from my Inner Voice and close friends/family is that as long as I do have fun and create what I love, I should not care that much about what others think of it. What comes from my heart talk to the heart of people who need it when they need it. And so I came out of my creative block and started painting again. And it felt SO good. I did miss it, it just felt not right at a time and I learned not to push.
I did know it would not always be fluffy bunny and that there will be times I would want to give it up.
I should not count my success by the amount of sales I do there, but it is also this, right ?
So I think I will redo my RedBubble shoppe as well, so people will be able to buy custom items like mugs, magnets, badges etc with my art on it.
Don't worry, new Nixies will be presented to you very soon all February long ;)
I am also working on this project very dear to me that I would like to be ready next month or so (march at the latest, if possible). I will talk about it when I will feel it is the right time. A very very low amount of people are aware of this at the moment.
