We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Jessica Zunic a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Jessica , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Alright – so having the idea is one thing, but going from idea to execution is where countless people drop the ball. Can you talk to us about your journey from idea to execution?
When I have an idea in my head I usually set it up on the computer first so I can see if it’s visually appealing and then I just go for it!
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
I’ve always loved art since I was a little girl. The first thing I remember drawing at 4 years old was a Snoopy. I was obsessed with Snoopy. I had a Snoopy stuffed animal that I took everywhere. I had a pencil that had snoopy on it and one day. I just decided I was going to draw the snoopy that was on that pencil. My mom was so shocked how I followed the design. I followed my passion and went to art school. I studied graphic and commercial design. I worked as a successful graphic designer for over 15 years. After I had kids, I decided to turn my photography passion into a business and now I’ve been a successful Westchester NY photographer and commissioning annd selling art for the last 15 years. I’m most proud of the business I created and my hard work and hustle I have in me. If you have a passion follow it. Set your mind to what you want to achieve and just Go for it! Failure is part of the process, never give up! 🩷
We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
I just started putting ads up about my business on Facebook. Join local groups on facebook and connect with other artists.
Alright – so here’s a fun one. What do you think about NFTs?
Im not a fan of the NFT movement.
