Insider Members,

Just a FYI this newsletter is gonna be a bit longer than some of the other ones I’ve sent because I have quite a lot of fun, exciting and some BIG things to share with you (somethings I’ve been keeping secret 🤐)… I almost don’t know where to start…..

Actually you know what… I’ll start off with sharing about the featured artwork in the photos above and below 👆 👇

This custom painted Bible was for a lady in Brooklyn, NY. She asked me to paint a manta ray in bioluminescent looking water on the front and incorporate 2 whale sharks, a sea turtle, and the Bible verse Isaiah 43:2 on the back. I love how this one turned out and the lady is super happy with it too! 🥰💙 She said she literally gasped when I sent her the photos of it finished 😯

I thought the manta ray looked really cool so I actually decided to make a sticker of it too and add it to my shop! So if you wanna get this manta ray sticker, then click the button

I want the manta ray sticker!

And if you love manta rays…. then you just might like this other manta ray sticker of my tribal art ⬇️

ooooh I want this sticker too 🤩

Before I jump to the next topic, I also wanted to show you this other custom painted Bible that I did for a lady in Vermont. She asked me to paint a steampunk style, flying boat in the clouds with some galaxy incorporated into it on the front as well as a steampunk style lightbulb with gears and galaxy on the back. I thought this was a really interesting request and definitely challenged me as I’ve never painted steampunk themed subjects, but I was up for the challenge and grateful the lady trusted in me to do this! This is her feedback after she received her Bible 👇

“I got my Bible and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!! 😍 it’s even more beautiful in person!! I will treasure this forever!! 💗”

Receiving feedback like that is so sweet to me 🥹

Here’s something I’ve been keeping secret for months and I finally get to share a teeny tiny sneak peek 👀

So since October I’ve been working on a big project.

An author reached out to me through Instagram before I began my social media fast and asked if I’d be interested in illustrating a children’s book.

We had a meeting and I fell in love with the story, the meaning behind it, and the intentional purpose of this book.

I can see the LORD working through this… from how the author and I connected to how this whole book is developing and everything in between.

It’s truly been a blessing getting to work on this big beautiful project with the author.

I will share more info over the next weeks and months about this, but for now this is all I can spill 🤫

This is a very tiny section of a painting that will be in the book 👇

Alrighty so a few of those beans have been spilled to you and I have one more bean to spill…

Another connection has happened that I know is all from the LORD.

It came from some people seeing one of the Bibles I painted which sparked some ideas in them and made them want to get in touch with me to see if I’d be interested in bringing these ideas to life through paint 🎨

I met with them and discussed further details and the only bean I can spill for now is that this will be the largest project (size wise) that I have ever done. Keep in mind the largest painting I’ve ever done alone is around 5ft x 5ft which is 3,600 square inches and well this next big project will be well over 6x that amount of square inches! 🤯

Ok y’all that’s all for now. I have more art and dancing to do this week so I hope you have a wonderful day and spectacular week!

God bless,

❤️‍🔥Bri
