We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Whitley Simpson a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Whitley, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Before we get into specifics, let’s talk about success more generally. What do you think it takes to be successful?
What it takes to be successful in my opinion is your willingness to learn and grow. You cannot do things on your own! you will tire yourself out thinking you can handle every situation by yourself, you do not know every thing nor can you control every single aspect of your road to success. Also patience is a virtue! I had to learn this myself. You cannot rush success!
Whitley, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I have been in love with art since I was a child. I was introduced and fell in love Digital art in 2010. I began taking it seriously in 2012 doing freelance work and has since made it a career that I still thrive in today! I have worked for many clients, one I can proudly say was Snoop Dogg. I have provided numerous logos, album covers, fashion designs and illustrations for clients. I can proudly say that every day I push myself to become better at my craft then I was the day before to make more clients happy! I have so much coming up that make me so happy and I cannot wait to share it with you all!
For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
I would definitely say, seeing my work on Merchandise! That has to be the best feeling ever!
For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
Getting to do what you love every single day. There is literally nothing more rewarding then that.
