Sometimes I feel like an adventurer on a ROCKY MOUNTAIN CLIMB. It can be scary when you don’t know what’s on the other side or even at the top. And sometimes I feel so unprepared. But what an exciting new adventure! Cheers to trying new things, taking that first step, and being fearless as you follow your own dreams!
What’s your exciting adventure?

The original mixed media painting ROCKY MOUNTAIN CLIMB has sold! Thanks so much for your continued support! Archival prints available in my Art shop!

ROCKY MOUNTAIN CLIMB 8 X 8 Inch Print of Original Mixed Media Painting
The original is created on 10 X 10 inch gallery wrapped canvas, so her journey continues around onto the sides and probably on after that. I used acrylics, pastels, watercolor, ink, and colored pencils. Then on top, applied an antique decoupage to soften up the key lime green and add a sense of magic.

What I’ve Learned As A Full-Time Artist + Entrepreneur

A few years ago, I wrote a novel about a magical world. I was one of 14 writers accepted into a 6 week writing workshop on the east coast. And when I finished my novel, I flew out to Washington DC to meet with my ideal literary agent. But then I got super scared and burned out. Because of that burn-out, I needed to heal...

Business For Creatives + Overcoming My Shyness

I used to be afraid to raise my hand in class. I’d learned that my ways of thinking and seeing were different from everyone else. When I shared an idea, I was often laughed at or told it was impossible. So I learned to stay quiet and be shy. When I was in the third grade we had an art project where we were supposed...

Painting Owls + Finding Your Artistic Voice

Lately I’ve been going back to painting owls. For awhile I had been creating these very renaissance-style portraits with soft, realistic faces and incredible hair. I enjoyed that I could make them look very human, but still full of magic and color. While I still adore creating these flower girls, I found that these paintings were missing something. After countless attempts in the studio, many... Continue reading

Letting Go + Developing Your Unique Style

Everyone always asks how I developed my artistic style. I have to say, style was nothing I intentionally developed. It was just the thing that happened when I painted every day. Most often I can look at a finished painting and see that it perfectly reflects who I am in that moment… all of the quirkiness and emotion I sometimes wish I could hide. But... Continue reading

What Inspires You?

Prints, Books and Originals Available in my shop. …… I’m most inspired by nature and the feelings, emotions and stories I see around me, every day. That’s why it’s so important for me to make sure I take time, each day, to find that inspiration. In the summertime it seems easier to be inspired. My inspirations can come from something as small as a walk... Continue reading
