Hello.

Never stop learning...
Excited to try something new to add to my toolbox. I watched a quick demo recently by an artist in the Wichita Women Artist group and decided to give it a try.
So far, excited about where this is going!
We all learn from others, and that's such a great thing when it comes to Art!
Look for this one in my upcoming show at the Clayworks in September!

Remember this public art project/sidewalk mural from last summer? Well, we are back at it now that Spring has arrived.
After some bad product information, we are now tasked with repainting areas that didn't make it through the winter. We have now been told we should have sealed our artwork. So, we shall push on, do touch-ups, and seal as we go.
Determined to finish this project and have our hard work last!

Shout out to my 🍓 girl Everly, my Mother-in-Law Ann, and my grandma Rita for stepping in to handle the chocolate Crawl duties for me this year. The events reschedule date conflicted with a trip we had planned. I am so grateful for their hard work to pull it off and defend the title!

🌼I think we all could use a dose of SPRING!! 🌼 If you happen to be Downtown, swing through the parking lot at DCI Park! Last summer I submitted six paintings with a Kansas Bird theme for the public art banner project for #projectpark.
I am excited to share that my paintings were chosen for this project made possible by a grant from the Kansas Department of Commerce, the Patterson Family Foundation and at Hutchinson Community Foundation. These will be around for several months so I hope that if you come Downtown you will take a moment to enjoy them! I am also excited about the future possibilities for other artist to be featured in DCI in the future. This is a great way to highlight our many wonderful local artists.
It is also pretty awesome to see my paintings on display in Downtown Hutch and it has been a great way to start 2025!!

✨ Important Policy Update ✨

As a small business, my time, materials, and creative energy are incredibly valuable. Over the years, I have loved creating custom art pieces and hosting classes, but unfortunately, I’ve also experienced no-shows, cancellations and unpaid orders that have resulted in out-of-pocket costs.
To continue providing the best experience for my customers while protecting my business, all custom orders and class bookings must now be paid in advance at the time of booking/project choice. There will be no exceptions. You will have a choice to pay online, via venmo or in person prior to the class. This ensures that my time and resources are respected and that I can continue sharing my art with those who truly value it.
I appreciate your understanding and continued support—it means the world to me! Thank you for respecting this new policy and for being a part of my creative journey. 💛

If only Insta Reels would give me more than 90 seconds of the same song...

Worked through the value study of this new floral this weekend. It's become my favorite stage of a painting. It's like solving a puzzle of light and dark...

Starting on a new feathered friend today. I have never painted the female Cardinal before. Winter is definitely my season for bird paintings 😉

Hello friends! January is #birthdefectsawarenessmonth. My friend Sarah Diamond has a non-profit that helps to support families that have children with birth defects. This organization works with other local businesses and providers to give families resources, support and care packages while in the hospital with their newborns. Sarah experienced this need with her youngest child, and was blessed to have some folks help her in a time of need. She started, along with her other board members this non-profit to give back and help families just like hers.
Sarah, being new to Hutchinson since her move here during Covid, would like to introduce her non-profit to our community. We have planned a fundraising event and a creative paint night at Splinters-N-Rust. We are also working with the new Culinary Arts program The Clayworks at Disability Supports to provide us with some delicious appetizers for the event! Disability Supports works to enrich the lives of the disabled in our community. We are excited to have them as a sponsor for this event as we believe they are in invaluable resource for families in our community.

I invite you to read more about The Heart of MFB on her website at https://theheartofmfb.org/ and join us for a fun evening learning about this non-profit and enjoying delicious appetizers and drinks and create a beautiful piece of artwork too!
Tickets are $30 and can be purchased on Sarah's eventbrite link here:

I look forward to seeing you on January 24th!
