They’re here! They’re here!

This year’s bandanas are finally ready to ship— and I’m so excited to share this year’s fresh design.

*new* Amazing Grace

How lost we would be without the hope of His salvation

This year’s design spotlights the enormous whale of His goodness— we can’t even fathom the depth and magnitude of His love! The lyrics to Amazing Grace are woven throughout the waves. Light blue ink on 22” square navy blue cotton. Printed in the USA.

Limited quantities are available. $20 each

Song of Songs bandanas

Rich brown line work on sky blue, last year’s bandana design highlights Song of Songs 2.

“Listen! I hear my lover’s voice. I know it’s him coming to me— leaping with joy over mountains, skipping in love over the hills that separate us, to come to me. Let me describe him: he is graceful as a gazelle, swift as a wild stag. Now he comes closer, even to the places where I hide.” (‭‭Song of Songs‬ ‭2‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭TPT‬‬)

Multiple foxes frolic around the boundary edges of the vineyard and the banner in the middle of the image is written in Hebrew: His banner over me is love.

100% cotton, 22” square, made in the USA.

Please note that the pictures below are switched: green with birds is the Psalm 91 bandana and light blue with deer is Song of Songs 2 (deer bandana). Buttons are labeled accurately.

Psalm 91 bandanas

There are still some birded bandanas in stock if you haven’t seen it before— or if you gifted all of yours and want another!

This beauty features a blue heron (design below) on one corner with a nesting pelican opposite. The border has portions of Psalm 91 hand-lettered along the edge and is white print on dark forest green cotton. Printed in the USA.

Note! Above pictures are switched: green with birds is the Psalm 91 bandana and light blue with deer is Song of Songs 2 (deer bandana). Buttons, however, are accurately labeled.

 

What if art could change atmospheres?

 

Why settle for art that just fills empty wall space when you can intentionally SHIFT atmospheres in your environment?

 
 
 
 

Your space speaks to you, intentionally or unintentionally. Details matter.

Color and life, joy, peace, inspiration, and a touch of the supernatural, all have the potential to ground your space with PURPOSE.

 

Artwork is personality-driven. Choosing a piece of art to hang in your home is an invitation to create, along with the artist— something beyond what you could host independently of one another.

ART is a unique key that unlocks an untold story, one that becomes the story of your home.

So perhaps where the question is "what do I need to make this space come alive?" The answer always says: "You need something that is LIFE-giving."

What is the story you're telling within the space of your home?

(Inside the Studio)

 
 

Welcome to the workspace

Right now I’ve got an airy and bright central workspace set up. It’s the breakfast nook in the kitchen but it serves perfectly as a studio space.
I have my coffee ready. Or sometimes tea, and a fresh cup of water for washing brushes.

The kids are done with school for the day (or maybe they’re not done but they’re playing outside for a bit). There’s just enough time to get a little work done in the studio.

Will you join me?
