It's hard to believe that two years ago, I embarked on a journey that would change my life. Tiny Tutorials started as a way for me to stay connected and share my passion for art with the world after an injury, but it quickly became much more. When I hurt my neck and painting hand in May of 2022, I thought my painting days were over. But instead of giving up, I went all-in on Tiny Tutorials. It was a leap of faith, but it was also a way to prove to myself that anything is possible.

And you know what? It worked. Over the past two years, I've created over 300 tiny tutorials, each one a labor of love. I've shared my knowledge, my skills, and my passion with thousands of people around the world. And along the way, I've learned that even when the odds are against you, you can still achieve great things. But I couldn't have done it alone. I want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you who has supported me along the way. Whether you've liked, commented, shared, or simply watched my videos, your encouragement has meant the world to me.

In April 2023, my husband suffered a serious stroke, and it was a difficult time for us. But once again, you, my amazing followers, were there to support us through it all. You lived this journey with us, and your love and kindness helped us to keep going. My hubby is having a steady recovery and has a new love for painting that has impressed me to the core!
