After a year and a half of networking, getting my hopes up, trying anything I could to get my hands on a wall, any wall, I was finally given the best opportunity imaginable \[through Book An Artist\]. Having done such a significant piece, in such a cool area, Sydney Road, Brunswick with all this creative freedom to push my own style, it really has taken a weight off my mind creatively. I have accomplished my goals and fulfilled my purpose in Melbourne!

I'm getting loads of enquiries through the site and the jobs are exciting, so I'm very grateful for the platform [Artist Oskar](https://bookanartist.co/artist/artist-for-hire/670 "Artist Oskar") [Oskar](https://bookanartist.co/artist/artist-for-hire/670 "Artist Oskar") [Manchester, United Kingdom](https://bookanartist.co/graffiti-artists-manchester "Manchester, United Kingdom Location") I joined the platform because I had heard about it from a few friends. I'm aiming to get into art full time and this has been a great step toward finding clients I wouldn't normally get to interact with. The invoicing system is pretty simple, saves me lots of time when I have so many other things to focus on!
