This is my mama right here painting her very own sunflower. Didn't she do an awesome job???โ € โ € Did you know that I try out most of my watercolor classes for @skillpoprdu with her first? Having an art education background, getting the student experience down from start to finish is so vital. Trying the class out for a test run allows me to better anticipate the needs of students and helps set the pace.โ € โ € So many of my students haven't painted or drawn in years, if ever. Sometimes they are surprised when I haven't drawn the image for them, but I find that with a little guidance EVERYONE pleasantly surprises themselves by what they didn't even know they could do! It is probably the thing I love most, tapping into skills once lost or simply not ever used. This part of teaching is such a gift.โ € โ € I hope you will join me at the @themaytoninn this Wednesday to draw and paint your very own sunflower! ๐ŸŒปLink in profile to snag your spot!โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € #skillpoprdu #watercolorclass #learnanewskill #paintwithme #watercolorlessons #watercolorhowto #watercolorlove #watercolorlovers #watercolorpainting #howtowatercolor #watercolorlover #learntopaint #learnhowtousewatercolor #learnbydoing #watercolorsunflower

Recently TWO customers asked why I didn't have WHERE my cards were made on the back with the existing info? I had no good answer (runs home and changes logo) โ € โ € So here we are, a small detail added but now folks who receive our cards will know exactly where they are made:) It's such a little thing, but something I am so excited and proud of.โ € You can find me at Duke Farmerโ€™s Market today from 11-2 and @solacoffee Tomorrow for their bimonthly pop-up from 9-1! .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € #freelancelife #freelanceillustrator #watercolorillustration #madeintheusa #whimsicalwatercolor #greetingcardillustration #ncartist #illustrationartists #dailycreative #stationarydesigner #prettypaper #paperlove #sendmoremail #greetingcarddesign #illustrationstyle #solovelysofree #illustrationage #snailmaillove #snailmailobsessed #madeinraleigh
#tbt to my one and only vacay in a while, Seattle! Here I am when my friend said, "#newhome." So clever...I know:)๐Ÿ• โ € At the time, the weather in North Carolina had just become scorching and the cooler Seattle temps (yay pants and PJs with the windows open at night!) were a very welcome break. The other thing this vacation provided was a ton of all-natural creative inspiration, A TON. SO MUCH. STILL INSPIRED.โ € โ € Also, goodness I forgot how beautiful driftwood is. โ € โ € What place as inspired you recently???โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € #naturalinspiration #inspiredbynature #seattlelife #seattledriftbeach #imgonnaliveinthisdriftwoodhutnow #kbye
A sneaky peek into my sketch book! I like to go back over my sketches with my fav pen of all time, a papermate flare, to really bring them to life. There's something about the finality that ink adds that makes me feel like I have really accomplished something. Kinda like putting a check mark next to an item on your to-do list or crossing it off? Something like that:)โ € Handmade bullet journal (my go-to!) by @theplumumbrella ๐Ÿ“”๐Ÿ’“ The one pictured is my fifth! .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € .โ € #artprocess #mydrawings #sketchbookart #penandink #littleowls #owldrawing #unicorndrawing #whimsicalwstercolor
