🌟 I’M QUITTING! 🌟
5 months ago
Hiya! It’s Pickles!
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Heya everyone! Long time no chat, I know, sorry! Work has been keeping me insanely swamped with long shifts and few days off and I haven’t had as much time to focus on having an online presence or on my art.. so… I’ve decided to quit…
QUIT MY JOB, THAT IS!
That’s right, you heard me, or read me. Whatever.
I’m quitting my day job as a preschool teacher and I’m going to dive head first into a full time art career! Being a full time artist has *always* been my dream. I have done full time art in the past, and succeeded at it when i do, but the only reason i quit was because of financial insecurity and pressure from my family to “get a real job”. While i love my job as a teacher i want more than that. I spend all day thinking about how i could be doing art and about going home to do art. Clearly it’s what my passion is far more than teaching ever will be.
Of course, this is a biiiiig risk for me, but i have big plans for the future too! I’d love to start streaming and ultimately would love to open my own Etsy store so that you guys can have my art.. PHYSICALLY! Prints, acrylic charms, stickers, maybe even a plush are on my radar as of current!
Of course, if things don’t pan out for me, i have backup options as well.
I’ll be taking this plunge after the school year ends (in a month! @u@ !! Wish me the best of luck!!)
If there’s anything you’d care to see from me in the future feel free to leave comments below or dm me or whatever!! <3
I can’t wait to spend more time with all of you!

And i have a bit of savings built up, as well as financial security at the moment so I’m at least in a position where i can take the risk!!
