Last year, I was feeling lost on my art journey. I was struggling with finding customers to sell my art products to, felt like the only way to get more eyes on my art on social media was to draw fanart or follow trends, and generally felt like I have no clear path of how to become a successful artist.

Then I found my Slavic niche. Since then, I have been creating Slavic inspired illustration and loved every second of it, got more sales, and most importantly feel like my art has a purpose now, and can actually help people.

In this video, I will share the story of how I found my art niche, how it helped me, and also how finding an art niche might help you as well! In the last part of the video, I will share tips on how to find your own niche. And I will tell you all that while working on a Slavic inspired sketchbook spread!
