Red-cheeked cordon-bleu. Dubi Shapiro.

My resolution last year was to do one thing before bed that would make my morning feel easier, and that’s become a daily habit that I’m carrying into this new year.

Some nights even filling up the kettle and setting an empty mug out for my morning tea felt hard. But I was always thankful for it in the morning.

Other nights, one thing would lead to another, and I’d wake up in a clean house with everything ready to go.

And, on a rare few nights, the one thing that I could do to make my morning easier was going straight to bed and allowing myself to rest.

What stayed the same each day is that I would take a moment to think of what I could do for my future self and do it, even after a hard day. And I would wake up knowing that I had done my best and any effort—no matter how small—was a kindness to myself.

I’ve been doing a lot of “a treat for future me” moments lately.

BENEFITS OF BUYING MY ART FOR YOURSELF OR A FRIEND:

- You’ll have walls decorated in unique collages made by a real human person and not produced by some AI overlord

- My fine art prints are high quality, vibrantly colored, and large enough to be able to pore over the subtle details in a way that’s hard to achieve through a tiny phone screen

- You will be supporting a small business and not a huge faceless corporation!!!

- The small business meaning literally just me, an independent artist attempting to pay my bills and put food on the table

- Which in turn allows me to continue making and sharing my art and connecting with so many lovely people like yourself

If any of that sounds good to you,
