Christmas Orders

Hi everyone :)

Christmas is very quickly approaching, and I've been painting a lot lately! In order to make sure that you get your canvases in time and I get some free time during the holidays, I'm asking that all Christmas orders be made no later than Monday, December 7th. Please only place an order right now if you're needing it by Christmas or for a Christmas gift.

Thank you for understanding, and I so appreciate your business. It means so much to me that you would want to give a piece of my art to someone, or have it in your home. I'm really honored by that!

Happy Thanksgiving this week!

Very Special Ornaments

I've been painting several Christmas canvases for my sweet friend Julie, and here's one of them! This is an 11x14 wrapped canvas with gold edging. Of course, the colors can be changed to match any room or decorating theme.


Merry Christmas, Julie--lots of love!

Green Elephant Announcement

This is a hospital/nursery announcement hanger that has a monogram at the top!

Jeremiah in Gray

I LOVE the colors of this Jeremiah canvas! Sadie's mom, Lindsay, sent me a picture of the nursery and wanted a simple canvas to match, that would also be age appropriate as Sadie gets older. The nursery colors are yellow, black, and white, and it has a lamb theme--super cute!




I decided to do a plain white background with gray polka dots. I adore the color gray. I justloveit. And honestly, gray matches everything. Neutrals, brights, boy, girl, baby, college. Gray matches.



I was so happy to do this canvas for little Sadie (who is just adorable)!

Flowers for Harper

Emily from Oklahoma picked out the perfect bedding for Harper, the little girl she's expecting. However, the "art" that came with it to hang on the wall was in fabric form, and Emily asked if I could paint the flower designs on canvas. Of course! :)


The colors didn't really photograph that well...it's a closer match than it looks!

Prayers Answered

A customer ordered this as a gift for her sister in law who is expecting a little boy in December. They waited a long time for the blessing of a child, and today, when I completed the painting, Kimmie told me that her sister-in-law had just been put on bedrest. So hopefully this will be an encouragement to them as they wait for little Connor t get here!

This is an 11x14 wrapped canvas, and the nursery is a sports theme. The colors are navy, deep red, hunter green, and a neutral creamy color. Brown writing is boyish and looks great with these colors. Here it is!

Holiday Mini Canvases!

Here are some mini Christmas canvases that I recently painted. These were not a custom order, so they're currently for sale (meaning no wait time!). These are flat 5x7 canvases. They would look cute in a small easel, hung by a ribbon hanger (which I can add) or framed, like I show you below. These are perfect and easy for the holidays because once the season is over, you can just put your regular year-round pictures back in their frames!





Here are how they look framed (this is for example purposes only). If words are cut off, using a less "chunky" frame should solve the problem.


Mini 5x7's are $10, and I will start offering these for letter initials, short verses, and names as well. Examples will come soon!

Merry Christmas!
