FREE Screen Saver-Merry Christmas!

Spring Retreat in NWA

Thank you for being here!

Welcome to my Behind the Brush Creative Connection newsletter! I'm so happy our creative paths have crossed and you are joining me on my creative journey! As social media gets louder and louder and more chaotic, this will be a space where we can connect without distractions, and I can share more personal things.

I'm so excited to touch base with you the first and 15th of each month to give you a "behind the brush" view of my creative life. As a Behind the Brush subscriber, you will be the first to know about events, art releases, specials and sales, new art courses, plus I'll always include a recap with links in case you missed something!

I always love to hear back from you, so let me know when we have something in common, or you have questions!

Thank you for your support, encouragement and friendships this year! As a special thank you, click the button below to download a FREE digital screen saver from my original art-see below.

Wishing you a very Blessed Christmas to you and yours!

2023 In the Books

First time in awhile to kick my feet up during the holidays

As a maker, my craziest time of the year used to be from October to mid December. My dining room table, kitchen bar, and counter tops used to be covered with art and shipping materials until December 15th. Then I did a mad dash to clean up, decorate my house and shop for my own family.

This year, however, by planning ahead and printing my artwork on products like canvases, mugs and Christmas ornaments that ship directly from the printer, my quality of life during the holidays has changed dramatically, as well as my profits. This year, I was able to increase my painting print sales by over $4,000 in less than one month, without having to create, inventory, package or ship product.

If you'd like to learn more about creating products from your artwork, check out my free mini intro course to see what it takes! I will be offering my Paint to Product Master course again in the the spring of 2024.
