Welcome to the Art Studio — Where the Art is Messy and the Vibes are Immaculate 🎨🍻
About 27 years ago, I had big dreams of being a traveling hippy art teacher—just me, my paintbrushes, and the open road. Turns out, being a nomadic artist doesn’t exactly pay the bills… and I do, in fact, enjoy eating. So that dream got tucked away somewhere between my tie-dye shirts and a well-worn Grateful Dead playlist.
At 18, I swore I’d never go to college—I just wanted to paint! Fast forward to today, and somehow, I’ve earned four college degrees (yep, still not sure how that happened) and built a life that—at its best—lets me return to that colorful, joy-filled dream.
These days, I make soap, throw pottery, sling paint, and—most importantly—I get to teach my daughter (and hopefully a whole lot of you) that life’s way too short not to chase what makes your soul sparkle.
But this isn’t just about pretty things and Pinterest-worthy projects.
This is about community.
It’s about connection.
It’s about sharing the wildly underrated truth that art is therapy—real, honest-to-goodness, soul-soothing therapy that doesn’t require a co-pay or a waiting room.
So, welcome to my little slice of creative chaos:
✨ Pottery that’s sometimes lopsided, always heartfelt
🧴 Beauty products that smell better than your ex ever did
🐶 Crazy dogs with big feelings and zero personal space boundaries
🎨 Barn quilts that scream “I’m artsy AND I own power tools”
🛋️ Free therapy (not good therapy... but like, really good art therapy)
🍺 And of course, amazing beer—because, balance.
Come on in. Let’s get weird, get creative, and help each other remember that art is more than a hobby—it’s healing. One brushstroke, bar of soap, or belly laugh at a time.
