Candy's digital art & small business journey ✨
Hi, I go by the name of Candy
I am currently living in the UK
I run a small business called Graffititrashstudio;
I sell aesthetic art pieces such as stickers,
art prints, washi tapes, etc
When you first started to learn digital art? What are the devices you used for digital art??
What app's you use first to learn digital art? Are they're free?
I first learnt about digital art through Instagram in 2019.
I was inspired by how each artist had their own style, their own
*aesthetic* that made them stand out.
I started out using photoshop (I believe there is a free v. Available) and adobe to deisgn my art,
but then later shifted to using an ipad and procreate which was way more beneficial and easier.
Procreate does cost a little bit of money but it's definitely worth it.♡
Any tips for the people who would like to start digital art?
The biggest tip I have for people who want to start drawing digitally is *practice*.
Practice even if you don't have a device, practice on paper.
The reason for this is that it becomes easier to draw digitally if you are experienced
in drawing traditionally.
Things which you love apart from digital art & small business?
Things that I love apart from digital art would be tradional paintings, I love painting
with actual paints and pencils once in a while it's definitely very fun
About your shop

Shipping : I think shipping has always been a struggle.
when starting a business its the first thing you should keep in mind.
The prices, the shipping labels, printers.
Heading to the post office every now and then can be tricky.
Any tips for the people who want to start there own small business?
Just go for it.
Start that business.
You wont regret it, but you will regret not trying.
Try your best and do what you can with what you have.
When you started your channel?What type of content you post?
I started my YouTube channel in 2020, I post studio vlogs, packing videos ♡
What's you're motivation to draw or illustrate?
Motivation goes up and down all the time.
Sometimes even when you're not motivated you need to sketch down your ideas so even
if you're not in the mood your ideas are still flowing
