Thanks Lilla – wonderful advice!!
Thank you so much, Lilla and Beth, for the reminder about the process. And “ready” = lol … just start where you are and keep growing.
That was a really good pep talk! Sometimes it’s tough to see the work you do in an objective light. :D
LOVE this advice. And right when I really needed it!
Good stuff. I have been forced into freelance and wasn’t ever “ready”. But I’m glad that as I attempt to transition into licensing, that there really isn’t a “ready” time… I just need to do it.
Great advise Lilla! One of the best things about MATS is we are all working towards the same goal……to grow in art. even though I didn’t go to school for art, I have never felt “less than”. Thanks to you and all of my new found friends I’m going to discover just where I belong . I’m not sure how I discovered this class, but what a great ride it has been……looking forward to growing in Art. Thank you.
Thank you so much! Awesome advice! I have always doubted myself and will move forward with continuing in getting my designs out for the world to see.
Again, thank you!

Thanks so much! Glad to be of help.
Yes! I’m listening! xo
Good video Lilla! Thanks
Another piece of great advice straight from the heart, thank you Lilla.
Thank you so much Lilla – always love your wisdom!
I love your videos! They’re inspiring and motivating! :)

Wow! Lilla your answer is amazing, very thought provoking. Thanks for sharing, it was a lovely video.
Thanks, everyone!
So great to hear!! I have talked about this with my husband a lot.. I kept on saying:i’m not ready! I’m not good enough.. I have to learn more first! So you can imagine how he laughed when I showed him this video :-) So thanks again Lilla! I’m growing :-))
Thank You. It feels like I’ve been freelancing in a vacuum (all alone!) and feel like finding Bootcamp was popping my head up and seeing a whole city of possibility; a larger world of potential work than I realized existed. <3
This was just what I needed today in the Bootcamp! Jenny and I are seriously blazing a unique trail that looks so different to what is current and it’s so tempting to jump on the trend tail but know that would take away what we have worked up on our own! It’s refreshing to hear that that thinking is ok. Thank you Lilla in so many ways!
This video got in my head this morning. I guess I am ready or not? because I just decided to take the plunge and sign up for MATS A&B.
Correction: I *AM* ready. :)
Hi Lilla, thanks for sharing your passion for art!
Thanks Lilla for your honest & priceless advice :) OMG you got me thinking about MATS in March… I have a few days to make a decision :)
Go for it Alexa – it might be the most important investment you make in your art career!
Great advice Lilla! Thank you!
I’m STILL just starting things and diving in and I’m never fully ready. There’s no such thing. There’s so much to learn and it never ends. xo
Beth @School, thank you for your kind words and you’re so right! I deserve to invest in my art career. Thank you Lilla for this video it convinced me to take the next step and keep going forward, like you said we never stop learning (it would be too boring if we knew it all lol)..as for me I’m signing up for MATS today yay!
