Introducing the Sage Leaf Studio

Hello and welcome to The Sage Creative! We are so glad you are here.

Today, we're introducing our storefront, the Sage Leaf Studio. 

The Sage Leaf Studio is a place where people who love our planet, love art, who care about sustainability, community, and self-improvement belong. We began in late 2023 with the mission to make a positive impact on nature conservation around the world through inspirational art that uses eco-friendly materials, raises awareness of sustainable art practices, and supports non-profit conservation organizations.

In addition to benefitting the natural world, our work supports Earth lovers decorating their interior spaces. We create one-of-a-kind pieces of animals, plants, and landscapes using vibrant colors and bold lines to capture the serenity, excitement, awe, wonder, curiosity, and peace that nature inspires. We carry this love of nature from subject matter all the way through shipping to your door. From creation to printing to shipping, we focus on sustainable materials and practices to ensure that our art products are safe for the planet and safe for your home. For instance, while many other artists still use unregulated forests to produce their papers, bleach to whiten their canvases, and chemicals in their inks that then end up on your wall, you will only only receive art from us that is made with eco-friendly materials where we can help it, and delivered with plastic-free shipping.

We understand that a commitment to sustainability can be a little more time and cost intensive, and quality assurance can be troublesome. As lovers of learning, we embrace the extra time required to strive for true business sustainability. We also regularly audit the art market to ensure competitive pricing for you to decorate your home and office without breaking the bank. Finally, if you're not 100% satisfied with the quality of product(s) you receive, we guarantee we will make it right. 

As mentioned previously, welcome to our community! We hope that you find more valuable information in the blog posts to come. If you want to be kept in the loop about new posts, studio news, and creative inspiration, subscribe to our newsletter below. For new art and art in progress, check out our Instagram (@sage_leaf_studio)! Also, as is true for everything in life, we are always looking to learn and improve. We welcome your feedback. Don't hesitate to send us a direct message on Instagram (@sage_leaf_studio) or email at hello@thesageleafstudio.com. 

Thank you and have a sage day!

What Are Your Core Values?

Image
In the bustling journey of life, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of responsibilities, expectations, and daily routines. We often find ourselves in a constant state of juggling, attempting to balance our personal, professional, and social lives along with our own personal hobbies and alone time. This year I was introduced to the concept of core values, or one's non-negotiables in life, and I've come to understand that one of the most transformative steps you can take is to identify and prioritize your top 3-5 core values.  What are core values, you might wonder? They are those non-negotiables, beliefs, or principles that you hold dear, which act as guiding stars, illuminating your path and shaping your choices. They give your life meaning and are what you give back to the world when you are at your best. These core values are the fundamental building blocks upon which you construct the life you want, providing a strong foundation on which to stand, even when life

Navigating Eco-Anxiety: Find Solace in Action

A fellow friend and environmentalist recently wrote me: " Some of my friends (and me, if I'm being real) have been feeling depressed and hopeless about the state of the world and how badly we and our ancestors are harming Earth and other sentients..." Her words hit home. It's something I've felt for a long time. Feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and sometimes, if you don't catch them soon enough, they turn into dangerous apathy.  In psychology, they have a term for it, a term that was never needed until our generation: eco-anxiety .  The American Psychological Association  has defined eco-anxiety (also known as eco distress and climate-anxiety) as "the chronic fear of environmental cataclysm that comes from observing the seemingly irrevocable impact of climate change and the associated concern for one's future and that of next generations".  Extensive studies have been done on ecological anxiety since 2007. It's no surprise that, while

Selling Your Art Online: Out with Etsy and In With Shopify

Are you thinking about opening your own online art shop, or are already online and not sure if you're on the right platform anymore?  I did a lot of research about which online platform would be best for selling art before opening my online shop in late 2023. I want to share with you the most important take-aways from my hours and hours of time down the rabbit hole so you don't have to recreate this wheel.  Let's start from the beginning.  At first, I looked at all possible options for selling art online. They can be categorized into 3 groups:  Sell on an online art marketplace (like Redbubble, Society6, or Etsy); Manage your own website; or  Use a 3rd party to design and manage your shop for you (like ArtStoreFronts).  The third option was cost prohibitive for most people, including me (thousands of dollars), so I looked closer at an online marketplace vs. my own website. Quickly, it became apparent that Etsy was the top marketplace competitor. We don't have enough tim
