Here's the thing about a new year — it doesn't quietly slip in through the back door. It arrives on stage, dangling from a thread, bold and blue and unapologetically itself. That big curved figure on the right? That's 2026, making its entrance. And there's Leif, my little nisse, already dancing in the spotlight — stars overhead, heart glowing beneath his feet, completely unbothered by the size of what's coming. The blue heart in the corner carries the year like a badge of honor, a promise more than a number. I painted this one with a grin. Because whatever comes next, we might as well meet it mid-leap.
