Cor, where do I start, it's been very busy here at Birdy HQ.
I'm still sussing out the site, so have made a few tweaks here and there. Hopefully it does a good job.
I'm not going to waffle on too much, let's keep this a nice light read!
Painting - I have been painting. Whilst I create a lot of my designs electronically, it's nice to have a dabble with a brush and it's got me thinking about creating a collection to see prints of. That's a work in progress and I'll keep you updated.
Affiliates - Do you like art? Yes, nice. Do you like chatting about mental health? Bonus. I'm looking for a few lovely folk to set up as affiliates. You can get discount off orders...and pass discount codes onto your audience. Fancy a go? You can sign up here.
Interviews - This project is evolving. Initially I wanted to sell art centred around mantras and sayings connected with mental health and positivity. That grew into wanting to do something valuable with the platform, so I set up the Mind Matters blog to share articles, and tips around maintaining good mental health. Now I'm reaching out to artists who explore the connection between art and mental health, and how it can be incredibly beneficial for the mind to practice the creative arts. I'm looking to publish these interviews in the Mind Matters blog, linking to the artists work. It's a subject I'm really interested in and as well as pursuing it myself, I'm hoping it will inspire a few of you too.
Products - I have been adding new designs and products to the shop. I've created and listed over 30 designs since I started this a couple of months ago. Can you believe it? I'd love to sell some more work so do check the shop out. If you sign up to the newsletter first you'll get 10% off your first order. Hooray!
