10 Questions with Ravnita Rayet

Name: Ravnita Rayet

Job title: Illustrator

What date did you start your brand? In January 2017.

Why did you start it? I think around that time I realised that I didn’t want to just do this as a hobby anymore. So I decided to take the leap!

Did you always know you wanted to work for yourself? I knew I wanted to be a full-time artist, but the idea of working for myself always scared me a little.

Is there something that you know now that you wish you'd known when you first started your business? Or what one piece of advice do you have for anyone starting a business? Yes! So many things! The main one is to create things that make you happy, not what you think others will like. Oh and we all experience creative block, so don’t lose hope and don’t force it. Take your time to recharge and refocus - it’ll be worth it in the end I promise.

What 3 words sum up your brand? Vibrant, cool, aesthetic

What 3 words sum up you as a person? Creative, visionary, considerate

If you had to choose three items from your wardrobe to wear for the rest of your days, what would they be? Unfortunately the weather isn’t the best in the UK so just to be safe I’m going to go for a hoodie, an oversized blazer and some relaxed trousers.

If you came to my bar ‘The Staying Inn” what drink would you order and what one song would you request on my jukebox? Oooh! I’ll take a pink lemonade and any Daft Punk song will get me hyped!
