We were lucky to catch up with Paula Pozo recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Paula, appreciate you sitting with us today to share your wisdom with our readers. So, let’s start with resilience – where do you get your resilience from?
My resilience is as forged in the crucible of a life-altering accident in my youth. The physical barriers I faced were immense , a relentless series of surgeries and a long, arduous journey to recovery. Those years were a trial by fire, pushing me to a very edge of my limits. But within that hardship, I discovered a wellspring of inner strength I never knew I possessed. Each hurdle cleared, each surgery endured, each day spent pushing through pain and frustration only served to deepen my resolve and solidify my unwavering spirit. The memory of that struggle, and the knowledge of how far I’ve come fuels my resilience even now.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
As an artist, I specialize in crafting unique and personalized pieces that transform special occasions into lasting memories. My passion lies in creating intricate shadow boxes, meticulously designed to encapsulate cherished moments and tell compelling stories. Beyond that, I offer custom commission work using the art of multilayered paper, transforming meaningful elements like maps, significant places, or dates of birth or marriage into stunning visual representations. I also explore the world of painting, employing a diverse range of techniques develop bespoke artworks tailored to each client’s individual vision and style, ensuring a truly one-of-a-kind and unforgettable creation.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
First my meticulously attention to detail ensures that every project, no matter how complex, is executed with precision and accuracy. I possess a strong ability to interpret my clients visions. Finally a high level of work ethic drives me to exceed expectations. This combination of detail oriented focus, visionary interpretation, and unwavering work ethics allows me to create exceptional outcomes and build lasting relationships with my clients.
Tell us what your ideal client would be like?
My ideal client is driven by a vision, seeking something beyond the readily available. They’re not just looking for a product, but unique expression of their personality or a specific need that can’t be met by mass-produced items. They understand the value of bespoke craftsmanship and are drawn to the idea of collaborating on a truly one of a kind creation. Wether it’s a custom design solution or a personalized art piece, these clients are ready to embark on a journey of creative discovery, knowing that the end result will be a cherished and irreplaceable treasure. They appreciate the artistry and are willing to invest in something truly special, something that simply doesn’t exist anywhere else.
