"Look at life and see what you love. Listen to your heart and explore what you love. Pay close attention to your intuition. Experiment. Take courses to develop skilled techniques. Be courageous! Be patient! Have fun!"

March: Chi Cheng Lee (jewellery artist)

"Keep trying till you find your niche for your “art practice” or “art business” and never give up, even if you have to put it on hold … success if different for everyone."

February: Mallory Donen (fibre artist)

"Never stop making and don’t get discouraged by rejection, 99% of the time it has nothing to do with your work and your value as an artist. If you are truly passionate about making art and you continue to share your ideas and projects with the world, then you are going to be a successful artist."
