Welcome friends, art lovers and creatives!  I'm excited to offer a variety of fine art prints, some fresh and vibrant gift shop items, and an ever-growing collection of light, bright, optimistic original works.

 

The very act of creating can be so theraputic and relaxing and I'd love to take you with me through my process.  Please head over to my blog to learn about all kinds of lovely techniques, some snipits about my process, my favorite fine art materials, and ways to incorporate color into your space...infusing a little joy and lightness along the way.

Montana is my muse. One look at my gallery wall and it’s clear that my work evolves with the seasons; not only of this area but also the seasons of my life in this rural town on #flatheadlake While I may not have all of the amenities of a city, I can see the lake from my studio and I get to soak in the drama of storm clouds tumbling over the mountains and across the water. I feel so fortunate to live and create here. The two @minted prints behind me in those gorgeous matte brass frames were created right here in my home studio and are available in my Minted store. Follow the link in my bio to learn more about “The Ring Road” and “Tidewater.” #sharemyminted #sponsored #rockymountains #glaciernationalpark #onmyeasel #inthestudio
Thank you to every one of you who has reached out to purchase raffle tickets to support my friend, Penny and her battle with cancer. ❤️🙏. You guys are amazing! I have made the raffle tickets available on my website. Just follow the link in my bio and you can purchase tickets in sets of 5. Drawing will be on March 15th and someone will receive this 30”x48” original painting and Penny will receive 100% of the proceeds.
My largest commission of the year is in the works. Swipe left for a little #timelapse action of me attempting to conquer this 48”x72” canvas. The underpainting will be acrylic and then I’ll come in with buttery oils to achieve some soft, glowing sunset clouds. Stay tuned!
A fresh new collection of gold leaf mini’s is heading to @persimmongallery today. Persimmon gave me my start years ago when I was just starting to explore the possibility selling my art professionally. I still remember walking in to show them my work...I was a nervous wreck, shaky, sweaty palms...the works. The ladies at Persimmon, all incredible artists themselves, welcomed me with open arms. All these years later, I’m endlessly grateful that they took a chance on an emerging artist with a passion to create approximately zero business experience 🙏 Thank you for mentoring me through the years ladies❤️
“Morning Promise” is a 30”x48” sweeping lake vista dedicated to my sweet friend, Penny, who is in the fight of her life against cancer. I mostly hung out with Penny on the shores of #flatheadlake while our kiddos splashed and played in the water. In addition to being a phenomenal massage therapist, she is also loving mama and friend to many. @sbgbigfork and the entire community of #bigforkmontana stand behind and beside her in her battle. This piece will be on display at SBG Bigfork and will be raffled off on March 15th. Tickets are $5/ea or 5 for $20. Swing in and scoop up your tickets if you’re in the area! 100% of proceeds will go to Penny and her family.
After much wrangling, I think I finally convinced this painting to cooperate. It’s wild how out of practice I am at painting big. Give me a 4”x4” canvas and I’m in the zone in 5 seconds but this one required a bit more...patience and standing back with a critical eye. Swipe left for a closer look and I’ll post the final in just a second. #timelapse #timelapseart #artinprogress
I used a transparent mixing white to soften the clouds in this painting. I’m in love with this stuff and can’t wait to play with it more...perhaps some misty, foggy effects? @liquitexofficial #liquitexpaint
Dreaming of the coast today and working on some mini commissions for a dear friend ✨
My first collection of 2019 is available now and I did NOT hold back on color! These little mini’s are the perfect antidote to the winter blues. I hope you enjoy! (Link in bio) #artcollection #goldleaf #mintedartist
As promised, I recorded a short tutorial on applying Gold Leaf to an acrylic painting ✨ I really didn’t know how best to go about this but landed on YouTube as the best method to upload videos for you. Click the link in my bio and feel free to ask questions! #goldleaf #goldleafpainting #howtogoldleaf
Starting out 2019 with some soft billowing clouds. Happy New Year everyone! I’m not one for resolutions but I do want to make this a year of exploration and growth...and even more studio time. Last year shook up some of my core beliefs in a good way, I think. My hope is that with an open mind and heart, 2019 will reveal some treasures I hadn’t known to look for. ✨
Thank you everyone for all of your support this year. I’m already planning some exciting things for 2019...including that gold leaf video I’ve been promising 😉 The handful of paintings in this post are available on my website now. Have a safe and joyful New Year my IG family ❤️
