Key Takeaways
“Do what you love and when you have a downtime, just push through it and you will get there!”
- Professionally, Sara never thought art can be her job. She studied business communication and picked all creative courses to find her calling
- Sara describes her brand/style as colorful and happy, even when doing sad expressions, she wants to make people smile
- Sara wishes she knew that you can learn anything so she would start sooner. In the end, it’s not only about talent because everybody can learn to make art!
- Sara draws every day to see her own improvement. She would draw 24/7 but has to sleep otherwise the quality would go down
