A smoothie recipe disguised as a business pep talk.

Facebook Booster reached out after seeing my original "Recipe for Success Smoothie" artwork and wanted to commission a version for their small business owner event. The concept was already mine, a tropical smoothie glass surrounded by motivational ingredients framed as a recipe, and they wanted to bring it to life at their activation.

I adapted the original piece to incorporate Facebook's brand colors and messaging, swapping some ingredients to align with the Booster program's themes: confidence, patience, learning from mistakes, community support.

The result reads like a menu item but lands like a manifesto for anyone building something from scratch. I painted it on canvas in my studio, and it doubled as a photo prop at the event. Guests could stand in front of it and take photos with the piece.
