We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Taylour Martin. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Taylour below.

Hi Taylour, thanks for joining us today. Let’s jump back to the first dollar you earned as a creative? What can you share with us about how it happened?

Selling my first piece of art was incredibly meaningful because it wasn’t just about me, it was about the person who saw something in my work that spoke to them. Knowing that someone connected with my art on a deeper level, enough to want it in their life, was a powerful experience. It made me realize that my art could evoke emotions, spark thoughts, or bring joy to others. That moment was more than a sale it was a reminder that my work could create a bond between me and someone else, communicating things words couldn’t. It motivated me to keep creating, knowing that what I do can impact others.

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.

Sometimes, I struggle to find the right words to tell my story—it feels like one as old as time. I was a kid who loved making art but never realized it could be my career. When I discovered it was my dream job, everything changed. Creating art makes me feel whole. It fills me with hope and pure happiness.

Not only do I want to bring that energy to your walls, but I also want to encourage you to create your own art—whatever that looks like for you. I truly believe it’s the key to reconnecting with your most authentic self, the version of you that existed before all the noise and the doubt. So, let’s embrace that little version of ourselves, the one who knows joy and creativity without limits.

In your view, what can society to do to best support artists, creatives and a thriving creative ecosystem?

I would say the best way to support artists is to prioritize arts education from a young age to foster creativity, critical thinking, and self-expression. Schools should treat art as essential, not as an extracurricular or something secondary to more “practical” subjects.

I think by cultivating an environment where art is valued, respected, and supported both financially and culturally, society would empower artists to thrive and continue enriching our lives with their creativity.

For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?

The most rewarding thing about being an artist? Turning your ideas into something real and watching it connect with others in unexpected ways. It’s like sharing a piece of yourself and seeing it spark joy, inspiration, or emotion in someone else. Nothing beats that feeling!
