Ava's success as an artist only continued to grow, and she found herself becoming more and more in demand. She had always known that she was destined for greatness, and it felt like her dreams were finally coming true.

As her career flourished, Ava found herself constantly busy, travelling all over the world to exhibit her work and meet with potential clients. She was living a life of luxury, and she felt a sense of gratitude wash over her whenever she took a moment to reflect on her journey.
