An upcoming trip 👀 and new minis

Insider Members,

Katie and I have approximately 5 weeks left to complete our 400 mini paintings collab before we board our flights to meet up in Hawai’i to piece them all together to create one big painting unitedly.

We have a pretty epic final image in mind and we sure are hoping it all works out like we have planned, but there is a lot of mystery to it since we live in different states and can’t actually see them all together until we meet up… is it stressful??… umm maybe a bit 😅

But with big ideas, comes some big risks.

I’m immensely grateful that Katie wanted to do this big project with me. I know it’s rare to find a friend who’d want to paint 200 mini canvases, film and post content practically daily, and on top of that book a trip to reveal the collection.

It’s a lot… I know… however Katie is one of those rare precious ones and I’m so blessed God connected us 💞

Over the past week since my last newsletter update, Katie and I have painted over 60 more minis and we are eager to share them with you!

I’ll get to that in just a lil bit, but I have a couple more things to share…

One of them is another trip that’s coming up before I go to Hawai’i 😱

My dearly beloved, full-time missionary, friend Harper is back in the USA after serving abroad for over a year!

I’ll be flying out next week to meet up with her.

I am looking forward to running into her arms to give her the biggest hug 🫂

We will only have a few days with each other, but I know we will make the most of it even though we both wish we had more time together!

We have plans to dance, collaborate on art, and just simply enjoy each other’s company while letting God lead us with the intentional time we’ll have 🥰 We both love some spontaneous plans too, so I guess we shall see what God has planned for us. 😁

I mentioned that Harper and I are planning to collaborate on art together and more specifically we are going to create some art for the October Edition of my mail club.

I wanted to offer her the opportunity to share more about her story with my club members so they could get to “meet” one of my closest friends and hear about the beautiful and encouraging things God is doing through her and her ministry.

And let me tell you…. she is very excited to be a guest in the next club edition and so am I 🥳

If you’d like to receive the October Edition then you have until October 31st to join the club to receive the art that we will collaboratively create and letters from both of us 💕💌💌💌💌💌💌💌📬

Last week I finished this custom painted Bible for a couple for their 5th wedding anniversary. The wife commissioned me to paint this as a surprise gift for her husband 🤍 💍🤍 It was such an honor.

I have two more custom painted Bibles on my list to complete this year, however you probably won’t be seeing those until after my Hawai’i trip.

Yoooo hold up just a second… Katie just FaceTimed me as I was writing this and y’all…

you gotta see these minis she just finished painting 😍 ✈️ 🏝️ 🌈

Hehe sorry y’all I claimed the one on the right 😜 Katie and I both agreed that we would be allowed to claim one of each other’s and when she showed me that one I knew that was the one I wanted to claim!

Okey dokey now that we are on the topic of minis I’m going to show you what we’ve painted so far!

Let me just share this info real quick if you are new to my newsletters 🤗

And last but not least some other things we’ve painted 🌺 🦎 ✨

Here’s some important info 👇

#1 The minis you order will not be shipped until after the collection releases in November because Katie and I need them all until then so we can piece them together for the bigger painting they will all create unitedly.

#2 here is the pricing for the minis:

1 mini = $75 USD

2-3 minis = $70 each

4-9 minis = $65 each

10+ minis = $65 each with a free 8” x 8” print of the whole collection pieced together.

#3 All orders of original paintings will ship free in the USA 🇺🇸

#4 For International orders, we recommend budgeting approx. around $25-$35 USD for shipping costs.

#5 It's first come, first serve. Once you let us know which painting you want, we'll send you a custom listing. You'll have a grace period of 3 days after we send the listing to pay, but after that those paintings are back up for grabs to our email subscribers.

Some of y’all have already been jumping in on this opportunity to claim your favs which is so fun for Katie and I to see 😍

It’s an artist’s dream to have a sell out collection. We’d love for every mini to find a home as we have been pouring our hearts into creating each one and with each one claimed we are getting closer to our “sellout dream” 🤩🥳

So a GRAND BIG thank you to each of you supporting this beautiful collection 🫶🏽
