New Year, New Adventures and that Dang Marker – Let’s Do This Together 💖

Well, folks, the new year has barely begun, and already the drama is hitting harder than a paintbrush in a caffeine-fueled art session. 😭 Last night, TikTok—a space where I found my people, built a community, and grew my art biz—was officially banned. Ouch, right? I legit cried and stared at my phone in disbelief. It's like losing a best friend- no my shayla!

It’s bittersweet to say goodbye to a platform that gave me so much joy, sass, and connection. But you know what? If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that creativity finds a way to shine, no matter what. ✨ So here I am, leaning into hope, embracing new opportunities, and affirming that 2025 will be a year of even more growth, connection, and colorful vibes.

To all of you who have followed my journey and supported my art: thank you for being my rock. Let’s make this year one for the books. Repeat after me: We’ve got this. The best is yet to come. 💖

Now, let’s dive into what’s next...

Diary Entry: The Red Onion Menace

Dear Diary,

There it was again. Mocking me. Smirking from the marker bin like it knows it’s ruined yet another masterpiece. Red Onion. The bane of my existence. The audacity of this marker to masquerade as a color anyone would willingly use. It’s not red. It’s not onion. It’s just... betrayal in marker form.

I tried to ignore it, but I swear it whispered, “You’ll never escape me.” One day, Red Onion, one day.

You’ve Got This
I know the future feels a little uncertain right now, but trust me—everything is going to work out. We’re in this together, and I’m so excited for the amazing things we’ll create this year. Let’s make 2025 unforgettable. 💖

Xoxo,
