Before I painted, I threw pots. These oversized pots are currently at Blooming Arts Gallery. These large pots reflect my adoration for the American housewife, and women who tended the family for generations. My mother’s daily list included “cook-clean-cook-clean….❤️ @thebloomingartistgallery .

I took the reference photo for this painting on a peaceful hike near artist William Bliss Baker’s home and studio. The woods were so still you could hear chickadees and twigs snapping in the snow.

Find some quiet, take it all in. These moments- even the busy, crazy- “what can happen next” moments, He is the reason for the season. ❤️🎄I love painting these intimate ornament paintings, vintage Christmas love! I cherish those memories- family all gathered, laughing and clinking of dishes….

In the midst of a busy season, this quiet landscape is an invitation to slow down. To breathe. To remember that peace isn’t found in the noise, but in stillness—where God gently meets us and restores our strength❤️🎄
24”x26” oil on panel, available. ❤️

At dusk, when the sky turned deep blue and the Christmas lights came on —the old colored ones, not LEDs — everything felt calmer. Those lights didn’t shout. They glowed. Warm, cozy, peaceful.
A feeling I wanted to hold onto in paint. 🎄✨
