•••Pay Artists•••

Up until recently, white-collar jobs were frequently praised and celebrated as a measure of how hard a person studied. But having met successful artists across the globe, Leonard [Siaw] said that education and learning do not stop after school. “Being in the art scene, artists often travel, meet mentors, cross paths with fellow artists and art communities, learn from and exchange knowledge and techniques. It’s a never-ending journey, “

Leonard also added that professional artists take their journey in art and work seriously. Hence, to think they should be paid less, or merely through so-called ‘exposure’, discredits the artists.

Maker Info

Darling Homebody

Darling Homebody is a small business by Chicago artist Nicole Jakus, offering original stickers, pins, prints and gifts for sweet and salty goths, gays, girls and theys. With the intention of allowing people to create a space where being your authentic self is not only encouraged, but also inspirational for others to do the same.

If you don't already know, my name is Nicole (She/Her) and I live in Chicago with three hairy roommates, my cats Socks & Butter and my boyfriend James. The art that I make is usually either very cute or a little spooky and sometimes my weird sense of humor ends up showing through (especially with some of the item descriptions that I’ve been coming up with lately). It really just boils down to whatever inspires me and makes me excited to share with other people. I think the hardest part about transitioning from hobby to business was resisting the urge to just give everything away for free to people who shared my enthusiasm. Because that’s what keeps me going, the fact that other people can relate to and also find joy in what I create even though they weren’t actively a part of the creation process. My goal is to one day live off of my art and I will keep trying until that dream comes true. Please join me in this journey, any amount of support makes a big difference!
