This week on GRAFIK CONTENT, I chat with artist and graphic designer Patrick Hunter. We discuss his early days as a line cook and how that time in his life led to him launching his national platform as a 2-Spirit, Ojibwe painter, how the Chicago Blackhawks slid into his DMs, and why being optimistic as a solopreneur can open so many doors. We also chat about the meaning of creative confidence, licensing your artwork, and why a YouTube cooking show might be in the works.

🎧 Tune in for:

✔️ The journey of survival to self-employment

✔️ Procrastination as part of the creative process

✔️ Early day hustling will pay off if you stay consistent

✔️ Staying grounded as your career starts to take off

✔️ Being open to shifting identities, the older you get

✔️ If you plaster your face on a public wall, expect graffiti

✔️ Collaborating with brands vs personal projects

✔️ Being the first in your family to venture into a creative career

✔️ Balancing solitude while staying inspired to make

✔️ Building a brand based off identity and creativity

✔️ Why everyone should work in the service industry
