Grandmillenial PNG Clipart, Patterns, Digital Papers for Wedding Invitations, Baby Shower Invites Stationery

Hello there. It’s been 2.5 years since I last wrote on the Essem Creatives Blog, and perhaps longer since I last sent an email newsletter?

Life updates:

Some major updates first: I had another baby back in December 2024 (another boy!). So you can well imagine the silence from this side. Navigating life with two under three and generally with two very young children has been chaotic, and very very humbling.

WORK updates:

At the same time, nothing that seemed to “work” earlier, work wise, i.e., continued to work in the last two years. With all the “advancements in AI” and general gloom and doom surrounding it in the art, design and stationery markets, things have seemed to be rather, I would say, NOT upbeat. Doing the same thing I’ve always done suddenly stopped working. Even doing it at all, seemed to become very hard because of constant comparisons, shops closing left right center, and a general feeling of trying to hold on to something that changing way too quickly and without any certainty as to the shape or direction that it’s taking.

With that said, it’s become all the more important to declare what direction Essem Creatives would be taking, and what you should expect from this space in the coming years time. I says “years” and not “weeks” or “months” because first, I am tired of people only talking about the next few weeks/ months, and creating a fake urgency when one does not exist.

In our particular market, that is, hand made art, designs, scrapbooking resources, branding assets, surface patterns, stationery designs / resources, art prints, and so on, these things will continue to exist. Trends may change, but the requirement of people wanting to beautify their daily lives and mark their celebrations with beautiful heirloom designs. They will continue to start new businesses, and need brand identities. They will continue to beautify and personalize their homes with gorgeous artwork that uplifts and reminds them of what is truly important to them. And to that end, art that speaks to these causes will be necessary and in demand. End Use Designs that serve these customers will also be absolutely in demand.

HOWEVER, with AI coming in and filling sloppy mass produced “art and designs” fill our search engines and marketplaces, it has become all the more important to distinguish and remain distinguished in our attempt to create and curate only the most authentic, human made and human felt art and designs.

I wish to create more artwork, abundant, gorgeous, hand drawn, heart felt and heart forward art that inspires, lifts and celebrates the essence of what my art seeks to capture – the joy and beauty in celebrating every day moments, creating gorgeous eye catching and scroll stopping branding assets and designs meant to inspire.

With that said, this is what Essem Creatives will be focusing on in the rest of this year: Grandmillenial, classic and evergreen style artwork, graphic resources for kids and babies clothing and stationery, branding Kits and business templates for small creative businesses who are sick of getting stuck and get want to get started with a beautiful brand in place.
