“Do what you love! It’s way easier.”

Jecoe Firmalan is an Artist from Romblon, Philippines, who dreams of taking his hobby to a professional level and turn his newfound passion into a full business. “To be honest, I only recently started doing paintings, when the pandemic hit.” Jecoe says that his regular income was directly impacted by the pandemic. As a result of these hard times, He was inspired to look for new ways to earn a living, while being isolated in the imposed quarantine. “I was forced to get creative and at least try to earn money during the lockdown.” With all of the world making adjustments and being separated, Jecoe turned a natural talent into a way of helping himself and his family survive. Although it wasn’t his intention at first, His passion and talent for painting helped keep him entertained, focused and quickly became an extra and muchneeded source of income! “I get a lot of joy from selling my art!” he says. “I was so proud of my first drawing. I did not expect that I could do such a thing until I started last April!” He says that he had a little bit of success selling drawings online, before the pandemic, but once he started taking his art more seriously and focusing more on his paintings, the sales increased and so did his confidence. “Actually making my paintings and earning from them is my most proud accomplishment yet.” Since Jecoe started pursuing his art as a career, he has transitioned from drawings into more advanced mediums including some current projects like hyperrealism oil paintings and digital illustrations. “I am so inspired and surprised by my own success as a new artist. I just want to continue to sell my art to people who truly enjoy my work! I hope to one day be a well know artist and have a full business around my artwork! It would be an honor to be a real business owner!”

- I’d like to thank all my supportive friends and my family
