When you change, how can your art & life change with you? Deane Christiansen on how to stand out, feel good, and not worry so much about the judgement of others.
Margo chats with Deane Christiansen of Deane Beesley Designs. Deane is a self taught artist, illustrator, designer and painter living in beautiful Alberta Canada. Her creative story started early as a child with influences from her Mom and Gramma. Interested in a variety of crafts, she quickly learned how to sew, crochet, paint and draw. Deane has been in the creative industry for over 25 years, starting out in quilting and a love for fabric. Deane licenses her artwork for products such as fabric, stationery, wall decor and bedding, to name a few. Knowing her artwork can make someone smile or change their day is why she continues to create.
Margo and Deane discuss:
- Her creative path and later start to making a career out of her creativity
- The highs and lows of running a business
- Being brave enough to dive into her passions
- Business partnership gone wrong
- Allowing your creativity and practices to evolve
- Understanding and accepting that you won’t love every piece and process of running a business
- How putting herself out there led to opportunities
- Not being in such a hurry for things to happen
- And more!
