A heart full of thanks (and what’s blooming next)

Hi Reader! It’s been over a week since the Artist Talk and closing reception of Elevated Perspectives, a Skyward Journey for the Weary Soul. If you were among the many who invested your time, energy, and attention to come view the show, experience the art, and witness the Talk – THANK YOU, from the most sincere place in my heart. I’ve been making art all my life, and I started painting nine years ago in 2017. Back then, I could have never imagined I’d be doing what I’m doing now:
It’s like a dream in real life. I want you to know that this is the beginning. If you were at the talk, you know that my next body of work will explore intimacy, love and how God woos (in my experience). Yes, there will be flowers🥰, but it will be so much deeper than that. I think of Luke 12:27-28 where Jesus says, “Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all His glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you…?” (emphasis mine). Related side note: I’ve actually got a bouquet of lilies on my dining room table right now. They’ve just begun blooming and are absolutely stunning. They smell beautiful. And then I think of Luke 12, and how much God loves us so much more than we comprehend. I really hope this encourages you. So, that’s coming. What else is that I finally got my site up and running🥳, complete with descriptions of a selection of pieces from 2025 and earlier. The newer pieces from 2026 will be added in the coming months. Check it out and let me know what you think! You can also shop for prints on a select group of pieces. Same prices as the table at the exhibition. Lastly, I had a couple of inquiries about larger prints, so I have an update on that. I’ll be offering limited edition, full-size canvas prints of a small selection of pieces in the coming months. Stay tuned for that. My next email may look and feel a little different. I’m hoping to become more consistent with my communication with you so that you’ll know what’s happening Behind the Canvas. Thanks, always, for your support and love. With love, grace, and gratitude, P.S. If you left your email at the Artist Talk but haven't subscribed to my newsletter, this will be the last email you receive from me unless you subscribe here. If you've already subscribed, you're good – talk soon!💛 |

Hi Reader! Do you ever struggle with imposter syndrome? You know — that illogical feeling that you're a fraud or incompetent, despite all the evidence clearly proving otherwise? That's what I've been dealing with lately. Maybe you can relate. After my solo exhibit in February (i.e., a very big accomplishment), I felt burnt out. The ease and joy I once felt when painting had somehow been replaced with tension and stress. I knew it was time for a shift. So, after lingering around for a while, I...
Hi Reader. As you know, I am a painter... who also wears a lot of other hats. Wife. Mom. Sister. Daughter. Friend. Oh... and of course, full-time employee (for the time being at least).. Between entertaining a toddler, attending Teams meetings, picking up and dropping off said toddler, spending time with hubby, doing house chores, time with God in my studio has felt... hard. Can you relate? (Even if you aren't an artist of many hats, I feel like you can). And just like I haven't, given up on...
Hey Reader! I just got done going on a walk outside. I've always known that I feel good after a walk outside, but since learning more about how our environment affects us, it's something I've been trying to prioritize more. Something about the sunlight filtering through the trees just does it for me. …but now onto other very important business. Emailing you! This week I want to share this video I recently recorded that shares a little about the big picture of my journey and the vision I have...
