Insider Members,
How have you all been doing this holiday season? Have you already made a fun memory this month? Any goals you are working towards achieving before the end of the year? Got any exciting trips coming up? 🤩 Haha sorry that was a handful of questions for you, but I enjoying what’s been going on in your life too. I don’t want you think these newsletters are just a one way street for me to share stuff with you. You can always at any time reply back directly to me to share updates. 🤗
For many of you I haven’t really caught up much because I really only used to stay up to date through social media, but since I’ve been off of that for almost 1.5 months I bet a lot of things have happened in your life and if you’ve got anything to share I’d enjoy hearing about it!
Here’s an update on my end…
Are you wondering what I’m holding in the photo above? It’s a Premier Collection item that I’m painting on and I just might give you a sneak peek at the bottom of this newsletter 👀
For now let me share a few more things with you. I’ve still been busy busy creating! I am finishing up my last painted Bible order for Christmas (unless someone else orders another one 😅) I’ll show you a photo below. I just have to add a Bible verse and writing down the spine that the customer wants. She will be gifting this to her fiancé as the art relates to their personal love story ❤️
Here are two more Bibles I finished painting and shipped out to customers last week 👇
Painting whale sharks on Bibles has been the most popular subject matter as I’ve painted 4 Bibles so far with whale sharks on them 💙
Here are two other custom artworks I completed last week for two different collectors. 👇 Drawing these made me wanna plan a trip back to Hawaii 😂 Going to the warm island sounds sooo good right about now with how cold and snowy it’s been this month. 🥶 ❄️ We rarely get to see the sun peek through the gray cloud coverage we get all winter long. I miss the warmth, the sand, the ocean, aaaaaaahhhh I wanna go back to Hawaii surf some waves, hike the beach & mountains trails, swim with the fishies, taste the salty water, drink fresh coconut water, sit under waterfalls, the list goes on and on 😆 oooh and blast some Hawaiian music in the car while cruising at the 15 mph island speed limit 🛻 🎵 🏝️ 🤙🏽 Well hopefully I get to sell some more art & stickers and be able to save up enough for another trip back, until then I’ll keep on creating 👌
Thank you to all of my collectors! I so appreciate you supporting my dreams and helping me to save up for fun adventures that inspire and fuel more of my creativity to keep making more beautiful art for you all to enjoy ✨🥰
I’ve been having a lot of fun turning my tribal artworks into stickers and have added more of the stickers to my Etsy Shop! Look at all of these fun fellas available to collect 🤩
Oooh and something that is exciting to me that happened is…this week my Etsy shop has hit 300 reviews with a 5 star rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!!! Wow! Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to leave my shop a review! Each review helps my shop to grow and reach new people searching for items on Etsy so I can’t thank you enough for helping my business blossom even more and be able to spread the love, light, and art across the world… and I mean it when I say across the world because just this past week a customer from Germany purchased 4 stickers from my shop 😃 That’s so freaking cool! And this person purchased 4 Kauai stickers… hmmm is that another sign to go back to Kauai? 🤔 haha maybe I’ll take it as one 🤪
Big virtual hug to each of you for all of your support 🫂
For anyone interested in collecting the new stickers I’ve added then head on over to my Etsy Shop
I’ve been looking forward to showing you this beauty ✨ ⬆️ I sketched and painted this mare inspired by a dream I had. I will be giving her away to one of my Premium Keao Club Members this month. Yep! That’s right! One Premium Member will receive this original artwork from me 🥰 And all of the other Premium Keao Club Members will receive stickers of her along with a hand signed print of a different artwork. I can hardly wait to share more about this mare in my letters to my members 💌💌💌💌💌💌💌💌💌💌📬
If you haven’t joined the club yet but would love to receive art and a personal letter from me each month then visit my Keao Club page to join! This subscription would also make a meaningful Christmas gift 🎁
Ok ok… I did mention in the beginning of this newsletter that I’d probably show you a sneak peek of the Premier Collection item I’m painting on so this last photo is all I’m gonna share of it for now (it’s not done yet). I’ll tell you more about it in next week’s newsletter 😉
Until then I hope you have an awesome week! God bless you!
