Beau Bloggers post of the month: Inspiration

This months theme in Beau Bloggers (the blogging group that I created) is Inspiration. I wanted to tell you guys a few things about it and who inspires me to do what I do.

I have two main hobbies, one is more prominent than the other. The first one you all know of is art, I love to draw and to continue doing it I need inspiration. 

Sometimes it does get boring and I do run out of ideas but certain people inspire me to carry on doing what I do. Yesterday I mentioned Kristina Webb, she's an Artist in New Zealand and she inspires me to keep drawing because good things come out of it. She was recently sponsored by Faber Castell and was given loads of freebies, things that would take me months to save for. I want to work as hard as she does and get those kind of rewards. 

I also sing, singing wasn't really developed... It's just always been there and I love that if art isn't working out I can just go off and have a good sing song. Lol, nobody really inspires me to sing. There are amazing artists out there with amazing voices however I think it's how it is with all industries... You've got to know someone who knows someone that knows someone to get you noticed lol.

Anyway, great people inspire me... people who worked hard for what they have, not people who shot up to fame because of someone they knew or something irrelevant that was done. When I blog, certain bloggers inspire me... Zoe Sugg/Zoella inspires me. She went from being something like me (A girl who blogs and puts videos online for the fun of it) to a world known internet sensation. She inspires me to keep going, she inspired me especially this time last year when I began blogging, for bloggers like myself and some of you guys reading haven't quite made it into the blogging world, where you get a million views per minute. Some new bloggers can relate to me when I say, you don't even know that anyone has read your blog and was interested in it... sure you got a couple page views but are those your friends and family who you've specifically told to go and visit your blog? or are they people who find your blog interesting? The answer to this is it's a mix, everyone starts up from the ground up - one day Zoella was like us, writing to an imaginary audience and trying to get pageviews. It just means we're yet to make it and we're on our way there and trust me, someone will one day write a post about how you inspire them.

Comment down below, who inspires you?
