Freelance Art Sales
03.2020 - Current
- My dad is an artist and has been selling art from many Guatemalan artists, as his full-time job, for most of my life. I’ve grown up surrounded by art and artists and my parents always taught me and my siblings how to decorate and keep our house nice, even if we only had very little elements, or a lot which can both be a challenge. When the pandemic started, I was trapped with my dad in the city and came up with the idea to start selling through social media, which had always been an idea of mine, but my dad being a dinosaur, had rejected before. We started helping each other with the profit of the sales, since I was out of a job due to the pandemic. I would offer the available art pieces on social media and he would paint and deliver them.
