We were lucky to catch up with Diana Vee recently and have shared our conversation below.
Diana, appreciate you joining us today. Can you take us back in time to the first dollar you earned as a creative – how did it happen? What’s the story?
The first dollar I ever made was from a little girl’s mother who liked the shiny pink heart necklaces I was selling at a booth in a pink tent during a live music event. It was my first time out in public selling all the fun stuff I make in my room, so I was a bit nervous and then I turn around and there’s the little girl standing there smiling happy and carefree which some how broke the ice, of what a nervous wreck I was at the moment. It was then I was reminded I was where I needed to be and there was no reason to be nervous. Just having fun doing something you love.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
As a border town girl, I always felt like my life always seemed split down the middle with everything, such as music, media, foods, friends, lifestyles. I always saw myself adjusting to everyone around me over time, gathering information about them made me just like them, and Ive met a lot of people in my life, so suddenly, after some life changing events, I had a change of heart, I wasn’t so closed off to the world anymore. Now, I want to share all my experiences, the decent ones, to the public. and I plan to do all that with art, jewelry, music, and potentially a theme park in the future, I know it sounds wild, but thats what I plan to do with all the funds I make from this career. I’m just trying to have a good time.
For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
The most rewarding aspect, is when they look at my work, and feel something. It makes me feel more understood by someone.
How can we best help foster a strong, supportive environment for artists and creatives?
As a society, we can start by giving them a space to express themselves creativity, somewhere everyone is welcomed yet it doesn’t cost them
