Hi, I’m Shakira,

a wife, girl mom of two, and the artist behind Kira Silas & Co.

My journey into illustration started back in 2021 when I decided to follow my heart and leave my job as an elementary school teacher.
Exploring different art forms, like calligraphy and faceless portraits, eventually led me to my true passion — fashion illustration.
Fast forward to 2024, and Kira Silas & Co. was born.

— My art is inspired by us.

As a Black woman, I’m passionate about capturing our grace and femininity in each illustration — with the hope that it leaves you feeling seen, valued, and empowered.

With this in mind — each sticker collection draws inspiration from various fashion trends within our community, serving as reminders of our beauty; to bring joy to our planning and journaling experience.

I love to plan, but journaling has my heart.

I originally joined the planner community as a minimal planner, obsessing over neatly hand-written spreads. But I’ve quickly switched over to decorative planning and creative journaling.

Creative journaling has become essential to my self-care and mental wellness routine. It’s therapeutic to mix and match sticker dolls, washi tape, tearable papers, and other deco to turn a blank page into a visual that represents me.

I love regularly sharing my decorative spreads and getting inspo from the planner and journaling community - be sure to connect with me over on Instagram and/ or Youtube!

xo,

Kira
