Goodbye 2025

I wanted to write this with a bit of calm and intention, because this year has felt… strange to me.

It’s been full of ups and downs, moments where everything felt uncertain. Artistically, though, I truly feel like I’ve learned a lot and every time I look back at my older drawings, I’m filled with a deep sense of gratitude.

Art is like that: you start from zero, and little by little, you grow.

That’s why your old art almost always feels terrible to see again x) But what never stops amazing me is that there were people who, back then, saw something in those drawings. I don’t know exactly what it was, but you decided to stay, to follow my path closely, to trust my process... And that choice means more to me than I can properly put into words.

I want to thank everyone who supports me, in any way. Whether it’s through financial support or something as simple as a like, a RT or a kind message, it all matters. Many of you know that my goal is to make a living through my art. I don’t dream of anything extravagant, I just want to be able to exist with my art and to build a life around it. Every single one of you makes that feel a little more possible each day.

I truly hope it continues to be worth staying by my side, that the time, trust and support you invest never feel taken for granted. Please know that I hold it with care, with respect and with genuine gratitude.

I won’t lie: 2026 gives me a bit of vertigo, but I also know I’ll do everything I can to face it with honesty, effort and love for what I create, wherever that path leads.

Above all, I wish all of you a gentle year ahead... or at least a year with moments of peace and quiet. The world is chaotic and often painful and I hope you can find safe places where you’re allowed to simply be, exist and create. May you have love, health and the stability needed to face the days ahead with a little more softness.

Thank you for being here, for staying and for believing.
