thank you to everyone who has been a part of my journey in this space. The intro was the first ever video vlog I filmed in this studio- and today is the very last day of my lease. 
This place has opened and inspired so many opportunities and although I thought I would be further in my career four years later in some aspects, I’ve grown and opened doors to that I would have never dreamed of when I first started.
Although I have so many memories here I know that I have the opportunity to make so many more in my new studio, whenever I go I have the ability to make the space and art my own 💌 
I can’t wait to show you very soon… I’ll see you in the new chapter

And just like that, after two years of painting, illustrating Adena and her Star has come to an end 🥹

Thank you all for being a part of this illustrating journey, it means the world to me to share this part of the process with you. And now we can adventure on to the self-publishing dairies and the behind the scenes of putting the book together (and I have also just moved to the most epic new art studio and can’t wait to show you that too)
