I hope your first market experience will be a wonderful one!
I'm loving watching your videos so much! You seem like such a sweet person, thank you so much for sharing your art and journey with us 💞💞💞
Oh thank you so much, it means a lot to me☺️And I feel so happy to connect with such a supportive artist like you🌻 I am so excited to share more inspiration🥳
your art is absolutely beautiful
This was so fun! Hope you had lots of fun Chika! And your art market looks so so adorable 💕💕💕✨✨💗💗💗☀️☀️🌸🌸💕💕💕💕💕
Aaaaw thank you so much for the encouragement🩷 I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed the video!
I am sure your art shop will be super cute too🎶🥰
@ogawachikako awww ur welcome and thank you!!💖💖💖💖😍😍🎀🎀🎀💕💕💕
The lady lives in Vancouver, Canada.
That's a big city with a huge Asian population. The other city with a huge Asian population is Toronto.
It is usually much easier to sell stuff in a big city because of the higher foot traffic.
I would love to do this too, selling art on the street, but that means I have to drive about 20 miles to get to the city center.
We do have a smaller city here too, but I may have to ask the city government officials if I can set up a stall in the public area.
If that fails, then I may have to go door-to-door. And I don't want to go door-to-door because the distance between one door and the other door is pretty far away.
I have heard that some people/artists would just contact local businesses to display artwork of local artists in the establishment.
So, I may try that route.
Ive been so busy with travel the past couple weeks, so I’m just now getting to your new video! I really appreciate your suggestions here - the vertical display is a great idea. I think your table looks very inviting - I’d definitely check it out if I were passing by! I haven’t explored this possibility in my area (though I know there are opportunities!) I feel like you’ve given me enough info that I could give it a go! Thank you so much, Chika!!
A market should be the place your scary children book will shine✨ hehehe
I will be super happy if more artists join market outside and make more diverse art culture! 💪
I hope you had good traveling! June was going so fast, wasn’t it! 👀 see you next week 🙌🌻 thank you for the support as always✨😊
This is really encouraging for artists who are shy about putting their artworks up for sale at events like this. ^^
Oh thank you so much 😊I am so happy to hear that! Yeah I will be excited more artists are showing up in local markets and showing their inspiring artworks✨
i'm so grateful for coming across your channel. you seem so warm and all your tips are really helpful 🥰💖💖
Oh thank you so much for the encouragement and the sweet feedback🙏😊
I am super happy if I could encourage more artists to join a market🌻✨
It's definitely interesting to see how to properly set a display up, rather than just laying everything on a flat table. So now I have a different level of appreciation to those who put in so much effort setting up their stands and displays. I don't really go to a lot of conventions or markets, especially art walk, I am not entirely sure why. But after watching your video, maybe I'll go out more and observe and maybe buy a few stickers and talk to people. If I ever decide to do something similar someday, I'll take points from your videos so thank you! Always curious to know what Chi-chan is up next so, next Thursday then!
Yeah I completely understand that☀️
When I was just a customer at convention, I never thought how vendors spend their day! But once you actually do it, it’s lot of things to learn🙄
I am so happy to know that I could bring fresh insight to you☺️ It’s fun to be a part of festivals and spend entire day🙌
I hope you are having lovely weekend🎉
You did it! 6 months of weekly videos 🥳
How to show up for a local market: locate the bathroom lol
These sound like very useful and realistic tips (no spoilers)!
I wonder if it's just an uncovered table or also the wall behind you that affects perception.
I love how the name tag explanation zooms in haha
people buy them impossibly?
I always forget that when you say Thursday you mean as soon as Thursday starts haha. Who is that smiling face? Omg it's already Thursday 😳
Oh no, you found my mess already! But yeah, I pushed to publish before Thursday! Usually I tend to demotivate Thursday, so publishing video makes me motivated. hahaha
I thought I pronounced "impulsively" correctly...😭
Thank you for giving me a chance to learn English. I really appreciate that you are very transparent and give me an opportunity to learn from your thoughts☺️🙏
About the wall, if I am professional enough, yeah, it's better to cover it for sure! (I need a big ladder!)
I hope you are having a good Thursday🎶
@@ogawachikako oh wow you actually publish on time rather than schedule? that makes your uploads even more impressive 🤯
omg "impulsively" makes so much sense idk how I missed that - what you said sounds more like impulsively than impossibly - I think I was surprised because I don't hear the word very often - but that might be a problem related to me trying to simplify my English - either way the stickers look great and you were very close haha
sorry for the mix up! Your Thursday videos are very motivating! Keep going! 💪
That looked fun! But also nerve-wracking for me if I were the one in the market hahaha. I'm not very social especially in person, so I also like vendors who let me enjoy their products quietly. I hope more opportunities to sell comes to you!
Oh I completely get that! After finishing a market, I usually jump into bed immediately and can’t move next day 😅
I also like seeing people’s artwork with my own pace silently. I am still learning good balance so that I won’t be the one who push too much👀wah it’s still a lot of learning 😅
such good advice Chika! I'll follow your tips when I'll do my first market
Heeeey I am so excited to visit your first market🥳🥳 I got your back! Ask me anything🌻
Love this, Chikako! Hoping I'd get to sell my artworks too someday and so this is very insightful
Oh I am so happy to know that I could share some insight! It’s very exciting that you will join in the future🙌 I will follow up more so that your first market will be easier💪Let’s go!
