Etsy Friday

Well there aren't much to talk about Etsy today except the fact that I keep renewing once everyday. I'm still waiting for my third sale, Lolz! Perhaps I should renew twice a day... *mumble mumble* They say the sales are slower in summer but I see some shops still selling like madness! I guess it all depends on what kind of items in your store. And they do say sales will start coming in when you have more than 50-100 items in your store. Perhaps people do prefer more options. However there are only 20 items in my store. I wish I could add more but to finish one illustration take me a few days. I guess I have to take the pace as it is now while keep on drawing and searching for other alternatives to promote myself.


I want to have so much things. I want to draw more of my illustrations and get them out there. I want to have various paper goods with my illustrations on them.  I want to work for children picture illustration company and publish my own story book. I want to have big dreams. Yet, you can't have a farm overnight. Everything starts from an egg *and I'm still laying that first egg right now*.


Anyway, talk about new illustration. The next print would be 'Poppies Fall' which was my very first illustration I coloured back in February. She supposed to be included in my 'Whispers in Thy Ear' which inspired by nature and my imagination. But that time I didn't put her in the series because she's not really there yet.  And I have been so into my 'Birds of a Feather' series that I neglected them for such a long time! I think I start to hear they're whispering in my mind! Four months later on, today, I look at her again and think ''maybe is the time to get you out there''.


This is the old one.
Looking forward to how she's going to look like!
