BIG NEWS…… ‼️


Insider Members,

Katie and I have some big news!

Today we are going to share with you the destination we will be meeting up at to piece all of the mini paintings together for the collection we’ve been working on.

Some of ya have been sending us messages and dropping comments on our posts with your guesses of what the collection is inspired by and where you think we will be meeting up.

Well… some of ya have guessed correctly 🤭

Aaaaaahhh I’m bubbling with excitement that we finally get to share this news with you!

Are you ready to hear it?

SHAKALAKA I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED I COULD DO SO MANY BACKFLIPS RIGHT NOW 🤣😂🤪🥳

I feel like a puppy dog running around with the zoomies yelling… we are going back to Hawai’i… we are going back to Hawai’i…..I finally get to say it…. We are going back to HAWAIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!

To give you a lil bit of a backstory if you are new here or you don’t know how Katie and I met, then allow me take you on a walk down memory lane ☺️

Back in the fall of 2024 I sent Katie a message through Instagram. We had been following each other on there for about 3yrs at that point. Anyways I asked her if she wanted to go on a trip with me to Hawai’i and I don’t know what kind of tea she was drinking but she said yes 😂

I have never asked someone that I connected with online if they wanted to go on a trip with me. This was pretty bold of me, but what shocked me more was this girl I never met in person before, never called, or FaceTimed with also had the boldness to say yes to this wild idea with me.

I don’t think she realized she signed up to be stuck with a goofball, who has bubbling energy, and a brain filled with ideas that come zooming in left and right like a speedy squirrel zigzagging on the forest floor 🤣

Too late for her though to back away cause she’s now stuck with me for life and we’ve become inseparable travel besties 😜

So we went to Hawai’i in February of 2025 and after that trip we were filled with so much inspiration that we wanted to create a whole collection inspired by the beauty of Hawai’i and go back there someday to piece the whole collection together.

Each day we are getting closer to when we will be boarding our flights to meet up on the islands and I can hardly wait 😆

Alrighty… now it’s time to give you an update on all the minis Katie and I have painted so far for this epic collection.

If you are new here or if you happened to miss my last newsletter, here is something exclusive we are offering our email subscribers (aka all of you Insider Members reading this)

We are going to allow you to have first dibs on any of the mini paintings that catch your eyes and you can order them before the full collection releases publicly to our 155,000+ followers on socials in November.

There will only be 400 mini original paintings available for this collection release!

So if you already know you want to claim one or some of the minis shown in this newsletter before anyone else does, then directly reply to this email and tell me which one(s) you want from Katie and/ or me and I’ll send you a custom order link.🤗

We are excited to show you what we’ve completed so far..

Here are the dolphins

Oooh now the food 🤤 🍫 🍒 🥥 🌶️ 🍦 🥭 🍍

Watch out for the sharks 😏 🦈

These are things you may find on the beach 🦀 🐚

Here comes the seals and whales 🦭 🐋

Next up are the rays and jellyfish 🪼

Not far behind are the fishies and wattah 🌊 🐠

Here are some more ocean creatures 🐙

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 😍

Katie and I are beyond grateful for all of the enthusiasm y’all have been expressing to us about this art collab. Thank you all so much! It truly means a lot as we have been pouring so much of our hearts into creating this collection. 🥰🫂 🫂


Last week I said I was going to share with you the reveal of 2 new custom painted Bibles I completed, but I actually have 3 to share with you… here are the first 2

And here is the 3rd one 💖

This is a Hawaiian Bible (Baibala Hemolele) and I turned this artwork into the prints for my mail club for the September edition.

To all of my KEAO Club members, I’m getting them packaged and mailed out…sorry for running a lil behind schedule here 💞

That’s all the updates I have for now…haha I know that was quite a lot.

Thank you for being apart of this journey 🫶🏽

Have a lovely rest of your week!

God bless,

❤️‍🔥Bri
