It’s wild at the moment, but I’m sure I’ll find the magic in it.

The start of a new painting! It’s an under-layer and you probably won’t see much of this, but it felt great to spend a little time, the first time since my surgery, at my easel. Remember, I’m now producing videos every two weeks! I’m looking forward to seeing you next Sunday.

And just like that after a four month break recovering from knee replacement surgery I'm back in my studio and filming a sketchbook tour for you. I've missed you!

Planned on filming today, for the first time in months, and my mic needs to charge. I’ll try again tomorrow! I miss you all!

Had a great time playing around with Anne Livingston’s art card game. My prompts were Hatch Building, Maximalism and Brushwork Variation. I think I fulfilled the criteria.

🎨 A little more about my creative life…
Most people know me for my paintings, but my creativity shows up in my community work too. I recently shared that part of my story in the Women in Preservation series with Preserve Arkansas—how I grew up, what shaped my love of place, and the preservation projects we’re working on in Eureka Springs.
If you want to see how art, story, and community all weave together in my world, you can watch it here:

Recovery is happening!!!! It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but I’m doing it! I haven’t done much art. I just get so tired by the afternoon. Any suggestions on making art easy would be appreciated.

I just set up my art box next to the chair I’ll be in while I recover from surgery. It’s got a little bit of everything!
