Starting Out

Hello!

For those of you who don't know me, I'm Phelan. I am a non-binary Filipino-American artist looking to pursue a long-time dream of mine of owning a small shop selling my art.

Ever since I was in high school, I've always daydreamed of having a site where I can share my creative endeavors with the world. As life got busy with college, a whole-ass pandemic, and now having just moved to Seattle from my hometown of Rochester, NY, you can say that I've let this vision sit on the back burner for a little too long. Friends who have known me for a while have now resorted to side-eye glares every time I bring up having a store.

Now that life is a little less rocky, I decided to rip the band-aid off and just set up site and sell ONE thing and go from there. It might not be as put-together as other well established artists online but we all have to start somewhere. Over time, as pieces fall into place, I hope to sell in collections. I want to have one collection dedicated to LGBTQ+ themed merch, another collection dedicated to Asian-American and Filipino-inspired art and one focused on ecology and conservation efforts for the planet... and so-on and so-on.

So, viewer, if you're here, thank you so much for your support and I hope you bear with me as I figure out this whole entrepreneurship thing.
