I am nearly finished working in my mini kawaii art journal. It was a very relaxing project to work on in the evening. The journal is getting a bit big for its britches so I probably put a bit too much paper in it. I’ll have to keep that in mind for future collage related … More Quick Midweek Hello!
It’s hard to put into words what is going on in this season of my life. It has been such a long season of waiting on God. When you are waiting, it so easily feels like nothing is being accomplished, like you are stationary, or even drifting backwards. BUT. But God. God has this remarkable … More Working in a Series
These days Texas is always on my heart. They are having revival in the church we are planning to attend, and while we watch the services every night from here, my heart just longs to be there. I haven’t talked about revival much, if at all here, but God has really placed a fire in … More Always on my Heart
It’s been too long, friends! I don’t know where my motivation for this ol’ blog went, but I have been meaning to get back on here for a while. I made topic idea notes in my phone a few times, and then just didn’t get to it. There has been a lot going on lately, … More Arty Updates

Since I am still in the midst of my mentorship program, I should be working on my 100 works on paper, and I should … More Procrasti-crafting and Independence
I have been so heavy in my spirit lately. The battling has been fierce and relentless. There have been many personal trials. I felt far away from God. I felt too drained to seek that quiet shelter of His love. This morning I woke up, and I can’t remember exactly how it happened, but there … More Light in Darkness
It is important to remain a student. There’s always more to learn. And often in the learning, we realize how much more there is to know. You also get to a point where it’s good not to know everything, you don’t have to carry that burden anymore (not that we ever know everything, but often … More Always Learning, Always Growing
The mini art journals are nearly finished, but they have been temporarily put on hold. I will be sure to share more photos when I complete the last one (though it’s never the last one, let’s be real). I am working full steam ahead to keep up with the modules in the mentorship program. The … More 100 Paintings on Paper
