About Me


✴︎⋆°.⋆༺ ⚔ ༻⋆.°⋆✴︎

๋࣭ ⭑Hey there, lovely people, my name is Mika AKA Sm0kyRaven! I’m so glad you’re here because it means you also adore all things wonderfully mystical and magical, just like I do! You’ve definitely come to the right place! 
I absolutely love creating fun and whimsical things that have a hint of spookiness and a touch of self-care because ya gurl is stressed and anxious 24/7. After all, who doesn’t need a little escape from the fast-paced reality we live in? 
Stories and shows about mythical creatures and enchanting lands have always brought me comfort, and I hope they do the same for you! ๋࣭ ⭑

๋࣭ ⭑Growing up, I always envisioned being an artist in the "real world" as a distant dream—something far removed from my everyday life. For many years, I followed the suffocating rhythm of societal norms: I would wake up early in the morning, rush to get ready, clock in at my job, work myself to the bone, clock out at the end of the day, and return home just to sleep, only to repeat the cycle again and again. This relentless routine left little room for spending quality time with friends and family, which gradually drained my spirit and stifled the creative whimsy that once defined my childhood. Dragons, unicorns, fairies, and magic were pushed to the back of my mind and rarely thought about๋࣭ ⭑

๋࣭ ⭑After reaching a breaking point, I decided it was time to reclaim my life. I yearned to rediscover the magic and joy I felt as a child—the thrill of creation and self-expression. That’s when I birthed Smoky Raven Studio. This venture reignited my passion for art, fueling my desire to share my creations with the worldᝰ.ᐟ๋࣭ ⭑

๋࣭ ⭑To my astonishment, Smoky Raven Studio flourished beyond my wildest expectations. Through this journey, I’ve had the privilege of meeting countless incredible people who share my love for creativity. My YouTube channel quickly became a platform to showcase my artistry, where I primarily focus on drawing fantastical dragons and playful cats. Each piece I create weaves intricate worlds and enchanting stories that transport viewers to realms of imagination ๋࣭ ⭑

๋࣭ ⭑I genuinely find joy in creating videos and sharing my drawings with everyone. If you're interested in diving into some captivating tales and witnessing the magic of art, I invite you to explore my YouTube channel @Sm0kyRaven ๋࣭ ⭑

๋࣭ ⭑In the end, I found myself diving into the fun world of making worry stones, cheerful stickers, colorful art prints, and so much more! These creations have become my little sources of joy, especially on days when I’m feeling a bit down. I truly believe that the world could use a moment to slow down and rediscover its magic. My hope is that my handmade art can sprinkle some joy and whimsy into your life too!๋࣭ ⭑
