Summer is waving goodbye, and I'm thinking of all the times we had enjoying the warm weather, like this day trip up to Door County. We're standing in front of the Hardy Gallery on here. This has been a challenging year but remember every single day we can rise and do even the most ordinary ... Read More about Saying Goodbye to Summer

Use What You Have
I believe in creating art out of found objects. I skip stencils and premade backgrounds in favor of things I find around the house, like this GIANT bubble wrap, which was so fun to use. 🎨🙏🏻 ... Read More about Use What You Have
Appreciating the Mornings
I’ve never been a morning person, but as the years have gone on I’ve grown to appreciate morning time more than ever before. I’m the type of person that is just not “with it” in the mornings. It takes me a while to become fully awake. My most awake time of the day is right before I go to bed. My ... Read More about Appreciating the Mornings
The Perfect Prayer
When I was a kid and going to Sunday school, we talked about the right way to pray. Perfect prayers. It was about kneeling and being sincere. You didn’t raise your voice in frustration. You didn’t pray about “dumb” things. You prayed about taking care of people (bless mommy and daddy and grandma) ... Read More about The Perfect Prayer

Day at the Office
Flashback Friday to a few weeks ago when I was hanging out in my studio. You know, just a typical day at the office. I'm working on another globe in this pic. And I've got lots of paint behind me in the background. And I use it ALL! 😜 Plus, I do like my paint pens, too. ... Read More about Day at the Office
Keep Encouraging Each Other
It's hard to encourage each other sometimes because we are SO BOGGED DOWN with our own stuff. But I find that when I do can put aside the grief and heartache I carry, I can focus my attention to others, and in doing this God is able to help heal me and them at the same time. Each moment we ... Read More about Keep Encouraging Each Other
My First Sculpture
One thing this pandemic has done is caused me to branch out and try new things. I've checked certain painting projects off my "want to do" list like murals for my hallway and door, I've started painting globes, I finally added puzzles and calendars (in time for the holidays!), and now I've started ...
