Wow! What a whirlwind of a winter! I have been enjoying 60s and even 70s over the last couple weeks and now I wake up to a heavy snowstorm right over Sioux Falls! I guess winter never really knows when it should end.

I am so thankful for fall…. Yesterday, was my birthday and my family took us to walk some beautiful trails with tons of colorful fall trees. It was a perfect day temperature wise and had a slight breeze that made trees rustle. I don’t know about you, but there is something just so special about walking on crunchy leaves along a beautiful trail that just hits differently.

I often times forget to be thankful for the things I have, so I just want to thank God for a beautiful world, a wonderful family, and 15 years of age!

Finished Painting of the Lofoten Islands in Norway, this one was super fun because I got to use my new THICK Arches Watercolor Paper which worked like a dream. 😍

Side note, I apologize for not posting in a while I’ve been distracted by school which has kept me busy, but now that I’m into a consistent schedule, I will try my best to start posting consistently now.

This is a watercolor painting book response I did on one of my books for school called “Lord of the Flies”. I didn’t really like the book, but I figured that God still wanted me to put my best effort forward, so here’s the final product! 🌴

I cannot tell you how much overwhelming joy I feel when I finish a custom painting and package it. I get so excited knowing that somebody is looking forward to getting something that I made with my own hands! Thank You Lord for the talent, ability, and privilege that I have to paint for others and for your glory. 🙌🏻

Pencil Drawing of my favorite place in the world, Grand Marais, MN! I’m debating on possibly remaking this sketch and then painting it in watercolor. 😍
