For this week’s #CreateWithCatCoq challenge, I’d like you to create art with a seashell motif! The seashell trend has been taking off this year! As a surface designer, it’s so important to stay on top of trends and create on-trend artwork to maximize your sales.

 

Share your seashell artwork on Instagram using the hashtag #CreateWithCatCoq. I share select participants’ work every single week, so don’t forget to use the hashtag and tag me @catcoq for a chance to be featured

 

I love helping artists as they navigate learning how to digitize their artwork and transition to selling their art online. One question that I have been getting often from my students is how to digitize your signature. As an artist, your signature is a key element to include in your work! It helps with brand recognition and allows people who may not know you to find your work and purchase more of it. 

If you want to learn how to digitize your signature, check out my newest blog post that walks through the process step-by-step.

We kick things off with our first live Zoom call in just one week! Come join me for 30 days of insider tips, live instruction, and feedback to help you launch a successful watercolor business! My Chroma Course, Make & Sell Watercolor Art, is a combination of live calls, daily lessons, and direct feedback on your artwork from me that will help you make focused progress in four weeks.

 

If you’ve been on the fence, I want to encourage you to give it a shot – it will be a great chance to start off your spring by making an investment in launching (or perfecting) your creative business.

I’m beyond excited to announce that my designs are now available as Evite cards! 💌 

Thanks to Evite, my artwork gets to be used in such a positive and celebratory way. Whether it’s a casual get-together with friends or celebrating a monumental birthday, my artwork can be part of someone’s big occasion and that makes me really happy.
