Today, we're chatting with Kar, also known as sketchykarr, who juggles her role as an illustrator and running a unique bottle shop in London. In this new episode of Start Your Day with a Creative, Kar shares insights into her non-typical weeks that blend job hunting, managing her business, and finding time for creativity.
Listen in to learn how Kar starts her day to fuel her creativity, the strategies she uses to wind down, and her personal tips for getting into the creative zone. Whether you're a freelancer, entrepreneur, or artist, you'll find practical advice on balancing a busy life while staying true to your creative spirit.
About Kar:
Kar is a holistic marketer, creative, and small business owner based in London, UK. Despite her over 9 years of experience in the drinks and startup industry, she is perhaps better known as aspiring illustrator and storyteller "sketchykarr."
As sketchykarr, Kar creates art inspired by her cross-cultural upbring and HongKonger heritage. She uses humour to create cute, and sometimes crude, art to promote Cantonese culture and to discuss deeper societal issues.
As co-founder and co-owner of Delay No More, Kar runs a bottle shop with her brother that focuses on low-intervention wines, craft spirits, and snacks from local businesses. You can find the shop (and her dog) in Bermondsey, London.
