Lilla writes: “I wanted to show our amazing community the vast abundance of products that needs art on them. I remember when I started out as an illustrator and was worried that I’d never get work, my mom would tell me: ‘Honey, it’s a big world out there’ – in other words, there’s so much more opportunity out there than we might realize from our own limited field of vision. I wanted to make this video to let you know that there is tons of work out there for artists and there’s room for everyone.”

Lots of love,
