Georgia Rose's Journey
Georgia's journey into the world of art began at a young age. She recalls, "I started making art when I was little, learning how to draw by drawing my favorite Disney characters (which I still do!)." This early passion for drawing naturally evolved, leading her to pursue graphic design professionally. "Drawing has been a hobby my whole life," she shares, "and when it came time to decide what I wanted to do professionally, I knew it had to be some form of art, so I decided to study graphic design and fell in love with it."
The Birth of The Midnight Retro
With a strong foundation in graphic design, Georgia decided to take the leap into entrepreneurship. Encouraged by her family and friends, she founded The Midnight Retro, a brand that beautifully merges her love for retro and vintage aesthetics with her unique designs. "Selling my personal work always seemed so daunting," Georgia admits, "but with support from my family and friends, I realized recently that there was nothing stopping me from doing so."

Balancing Act
Running a business while managing other commitments is no easy feat, but Georgia has embraced the challenge wholeheartedly. "Figuring out how to manage the shop, along with the other commitments I have in my life has definitely taught me a lot," she says, "but I wouldn't trade it for anything. I'm so excited to have the opportunity to share what I love with others, and I appreciate every bit of support more than I could ever express."
Words of Wisdom
Georgia's journey is a testament to the power of perseverance and passion. Her advice to other artists? "Never stop doing what you love, and never tell yourself that you aren't good enough. Keep working, keep improving, and be proud of everything you make. Nothing you make is ever a failure."
