Hi,

Today, I want to talk about something close to my heart – Ikigai. It's a bit of a buzzword these days, but bear with me because it's truly the guiding light behind what I do at Painterly Prints.

What is Ikigai?

Ikigai is a Japanese concept that represents the convergence of four key elements: passion, mission, vocation, and profession. Let's break it down:

1. Passion: This is what gets my heart racing at Painterly Prints. It's my love for art, for creativity, and for the beauty of self-expression. Every wall art piece is painterly, infused with passion, and it's what makes our wall art come alive.

2. Mission: The Painterly Prints wall art mission is simple yet profound – to spread colour and inspiration through our wall art. We want to create pieces that not only adorn walls but also ignite conversations, spark creativity, and bring joy into people's lives.

3. Vocation: This is where the hard work comes in. At Painterly Prints, I'm committed to honing my craft, pushing myself to be better, and delivering top-notch wall art that I'm proud to stand behind.

4. Profession: And finally, I'm fortunate enough to turn my passion into a profession. Through the online store, I'm able to share our wall art creations with the world, connecting with wall art lovers far and wide and creating a business doing something that I love.

Ikigai & Painterly Prints

At Painterly Prints, discovering my Ikigai has been a transformative journey. It's what drives me to create, to innovate, and to bring a little bit of magic into the world through our wall art.

So, as you explore our wall art collections, I invite you to think about your own Ikigai. What lights your fire? What makes you come alive? And how can you align your passions, talents, and contributions to create a life that's truly fulfilling?

Thanks for joining me on this journey of self-discovery and creativity at Painterly Prints wall art. Here's to embracing our Ikigai and creating a brighter, more painterly world together.

Warm regards,

Craig Spence
