Our story began at the Kansas City Art Institute in 2016. One night, at 12:32 AM, Zane took a leap of faith and slid into Kylie’s Instagram DMs with a simple but intriguing message: "Yeo! Are you in painting dpt?"

What started as a late-night curiosity turned into a heartfelt connection. Kylie invited Zane for a studio visit, and from that moment on, everything fell into place. Our shared passion for art quickly grew into something much deeper.

Over the years, we’ve become each other’s biggest supporters—both in art and in life. Our mutual friends have doubled and become like family, while our own families have embraced us with open arms and supported us along the way. Our journey together has been a beautiful blend of love, laughter, and endless support.

As we step into this new chapter, we’re excited to celebrate the love that brought us together and the incredible life we continue to build side by side.
