What I’ve been working on today


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 for my artwork.

It's about 7.5-minutes long, and you can totally listen to it on 2x speed or in the background. Promise I won't be offended.

In it, I talk a little about my journey from studying engineering for financial stability while maintaining my passion for the arts, and how I feel that my self-taught artistic ability feels like a divine gift from God.

I give you some great context on my personality (which I have heard is very important for savvy collectors like you) and the heart behind why I do this.

Here's the vid:

I hope you give it a listen. Let me know what you relate to the most.

(Seriously, let me know. I love reading and responding to your replies!)

With love, grace, and gratitude,

Friend, If you looked into my studio earlier this year leading up to my solo art show, you would have seen giant, 30x40" canvases (and larger), layers upon layers of acrylic paint, and a creative process dependent upon my ability to control the brush to render lifelike images. I knew where each stroke belonged and was determined to control the outcome of each piece (to an extent). It was a beautiful, successful season, and I am still celebrating how those pieces are finding their places in...

Hi Reader! Last month, I decided to enter every email subscriber into a random drawing for a free open-edition print of "El Rai". You all had until the end of the month to join the list and enter the drawing. Well... now it's time to announce the winner! And the winner is... ... ... ... Myown! Congratulations!!! Okay, so maybe you didn't win and you want another chance at a free open-edition print? I feel that! Good news. I’m doing it all over again this month with a different open-edition...

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...
