I found this out recently too. I started to do in person events and some were amazing and others I sold NOTHING and that tore me very hard. Those moments I wanted to throw in the towel and forgot about the good moments and the amazing sales and the amazing support from people who love my art. Again so happy for you, your career and your new family member. 😊
Lol you're so hilarious, thank you for making this video! I absolutely feel seen and like I'm not alone. You seem like such a lovely person and AMAZING artist. Happy I found your channel!
Congratulations on your baby!!!! AND…That painting is amaaaazing! You will sell it! You’re so smart…you’re going to be very successful! Multiple streams…yes…with steady persistence too!
Thank you so much 😊
I love your video. I can so relate! I sold out of art calendars last year, people were asking for more. I printed more for this year so everyone could get one. Sold half and crickets…..ANYONE want a 2025 calendar? Also love your Tik Tok purchase review. I have purchased a few things, it’s definitely hit or miss!!! Thank you for your honest experiences as an artist!❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for such a great and honest video about the ups and downs of art. Also, I haven’t laughed out loud so hard in a long time over the baby clothes.😂Best of luck with everything.
Haha I’m so glad I could provide you with some laughs for the day, and thank you!!
Omg such good reminders 🙏 also that onesie did you dirty 🤣
Despite not feeling well you had me laughing the whole time. The ending?!!! I cant believe it haha
Happy New Year Kayla ❤️ best to you and your babies 🥰
Thanks for sharing your experience and your pregnancy craziness.....wonderful!! Take care and all the best ❤
Hah , I like how real and honest you are. I grew up in a house of 9 ladies and you were just being real here. Nothing held back and so funny. I'm only learning to be an artist but I'm having fun. I love the crow/bird painting above your sofa. Congrats on making a fun size Kayla !!!
Haha thank you so much! Art should be about having fun anyways 🎨 Lol, the painting was a collaboration with my son. We joke about how ugly it is now
The painting is beautiful
Thnx for just being you...always refreshing and you make me laugh. I'm at the very beginning of my art business journey, having made $0 so far...but keep telling myself I'm proud of the efforts I've made (just because curling up in a ball and cry won't help me much now would it?!). If your pregnant brain allows (trust me, I know the pregnant brain well, done it 5 times) I'd love to see a video on how the freak someone can market their work. Marketing for artists for dummies (or pregnant women, lol).
17 weeks! Congratulations 🎉
You are laugh out loud funny! Love your videos! Made my day!
I enjoyed your ramble! I feel like we’re friends now lol. Thanks for highlighting that it’s not always this perfect picture. I learned a lot this past year as far as navigating ups and downs. Good to know that even when I “make it”, I’ll have to keep that in perspective.
I’m being such a creeper with the 3rd comment in the first 2 minutes but your personality is just so charming and fun!
Haha no this means a lot to me because I usually just feel annoying and prolong filming anything 😂
-so thank you!! 😊🩷
You’re not annoying. 😂
Oh honey , I wish I could hug you I’m feeling all of your emotions….. you are lovely!!
Hello from The Dalles! Congrats on the baby..Blessings
Hahahaha the baby clothes 🤣🤣🤣🤣. On a different note, if you need or want a video editor, I do that on the side and would love to work with you!
You're very cute and made me chuckle. Thanks for the encouragement.
That's a beautiful portrait. It would be better if it was somebody that you don't know,of somebody's love. Loved one,
Great videos... thanks..
Hello my friend
It's okay...In the last 3 months the people were busy fighting over election drama and then crying through the holiday season. Your Art would probably make them feel better and ain't nobody care about that 😅
Hope the streak is resumed soon!! All the best.
Maybe the underwater portraits have run its course, maybe you should start a new series.... Just a suggestion. Collectors can be so fickle.
Shinnecock is the name of a town on Long Island. 😂 i think they probably have a baseball
Team
There 😂
You learn something new everyday 🫡😳
Where have you been???!!!😅
Pregnant and in bed ok 😭😭😭
Babies are a blessing
So many can’t have them and so many abort them.
You’re second pregnancy always makes you get the bump faster. The muscles are stretched from the first
I would love to see a video explaining how you paint top to bottom almost like it is coming out of a printer. Yes you’re very talented.
Girl what you sayin'??? How do you get paid from reels on Instagram??? Or is it only in US? I'm in Europe and I've been checking it all the time it says there's no way to get paid on Instagram unless you do a sponsorship 😮
That’s so strange, when I click on my “professional dashboard”, one of the options is “Bonuses” 😳 Maybe it’s just the US? No idea
@KaylaCarlileArt No such thing for the European version. But we can pay an ad to Instagram so they can promote our reels for which we aren't going to get paid or anything like that but we will just reach more people 😆
I don’t have Bonuses on my IG reels. 😢 Do you have to have a set amount of followers? I am in the USA.
Okay I researched it and this is what Google says: “ To be eligible, creators must meet certain criteria, including: Having a professional Instagram account, Publishing original content, Having a minimum number of views on their reels, and Not being an aggregator account.”
I didn’t realize it was so uncommon ☹️☹️
@ I lack the views & follower count. Womp, womp … as a small biz account.😒
