💬 I'm in my 50s, is it too late for me to have a creative career?

🌿 Absolutely not. We've always been told to be 'someone' - how to be the perfect daughter, the perfect wife, the perfect mother and all our wants and needs were pushed out of sight. This is the time to for you to do what you want, to listen to our long-forgotten inner child and let us be who we are meant to be.

When I took the step towards the Immersion Course, I gave myself the permission to do what my soul has always needed. And it was like walking into Disneyland for artists. Oooh it was so visually beautiful and inspiring. I finally allowed myself to play!

Let go of the pressure of needing to earn money for a little. That's a result. I strongly believe now that when you follow your passion, the money will follow.



💬 I've never touched Illustrator in my life! I don't even know how to draw but I always had a good eye. Is Immersion for me?

🌿 Immersion is perfect for beginners. Even as an advanced student, I learn so much from the Illustrator modules. You don't need to know how to draw, or be good at it. Bonnie has always claimed she was not a good drawer (I know, it's hard to imagine), but it's all in the 'tricks'. There are many ways to create art without knowing how to draw and Bonnie teaches all the different strategies. And if you need more help, the support team is there for you.



💬 I'm already work as freelance illustrator, how will taking Immersion benefit me?

🌿 I think the modules in Immersion can still be advantageous for professional graphic designers especially when it comes to how to make a collection, putting a portfolio together, how to pitch to clients and understanding contracts. The business aspect of being a surface designer is so important.

The best part of being a surface designer is the freedom to make art that represents you. You're giving voice to your creative expression. It's not your clients, their brand and product - it's all you. You get to put the beauty you create out in the world.

Then, there's also making your art work hard for you. As a graphic designer and illustrator, that piece of work is only meant for one use and one client, but with surface design, it can be put on as many products possible for several clients (depending on the agreement, of course, but if you know how to negotiate, it can be done towards your advantage). Working like that will give you more time to do other things.



💬 I'M AFRAID TO INVEST SO MUCH IN A COURSE, INSTEAD OF USING THE MONEY FOR THE FAMILY.

🌿 Oh man, I remember that feeling. It’s the pits. I had just enough money to sign up for Immersion and I felt so torn. Do I spend more money on yet another course that may do nothing for my career, or do I use it towards groceries? I was a new mum, so nappies and formula milk was always on the list (I couldn’t breastfeed, but that's an entirely different story).

This was what I’d say to everyone: If it doesn’t break the bank, and you can still afford the necessities e.g. pay the bills, mortgage/ rent, put food on the table, then I’d say, “Yes, it’s VERY much worth the investment.”

I had to give a career talk to my son recently, and my little guy was so proud of me. He was wearing the raincoat I’d design, showing off all the stuff that had my art on it to his classmates. It was so sweet and a little embarrassing. To see him so full of pride for me and my work made me feel that I made the right choice.

Your kids will learn from you. They will see how hard you’ve work towards your dreams and passion. And to me, that’s such a valuable life lesson.
