Last month (late to the party, oops) marked five years since I started my page. I honestly can't believe how much I have personally grown and how much my artwork has developed over the years. So, a big happy birthday to me! (hehe)

I first started by selling a small line of artwork and have expanded to include t-shirts, tote bags, scrunchies, stickers, and my very funny greeting cards. It feels crazy looking back at where I was and where I am now today. I am so proud of my achievements and how far I have come. I have definitely changed from a shy, self-conscious person to someone who is eager to talk about it with anyone.

I feel extremely lucky to have found what I am so passionate about and wouldn't change a thing. Every moment is so special to me, and I am constantly growing in confidence and developing my skills.

But, in saying all of this, I have had my fair share of lows. From a lack of motivation, rejection, negative feedback, or just standard burnout. However, whenever I go through these lows, I always take a step back and look at the past five years and how far I have come.

Reading your comments, feedback, and heartfelt messages makes it all so much better. Seeing and hearing how my illustrations have had a positive impact makes it all worthwhile and enhances my love for what I do.

A massive thank you to everyone for being a part of all of this, and I am so excited to see what's to come in the future!
