The 2026 Prompts, Pitch & P.O.D. Guide
It took me years to give myself permission to call myself an artist.
As a child, I was always drawing and doodling. But my parents told me that being an artist wasn’t a real career, and for a long time, I believed them. I grew up feeling confused and quietly unhappy — like a part of me was waiting for permission to exist.
Then one day, I realised I wasn’t alone.
After sharing a post on Instagram, messages came flooding in from other surface designers who said they felt like imposters every time they called themselves “artists.” I knew that feeling too. But not anymore.
It’s time for us to embrace who we are — to stop waiting for approval and start owning our creative identity. To give ourselves permission to create, to dream, and to claim the title of artist — today.
