Paint Your Feelings Workshop

“Can you be aware that as much of the beauty you want to create, so too is there a need for things that are antithetical to it - so too is there a need for something gruesome, or ugly, or strange, or put together in ways that our mind can’t quite understand…” -Chani Nicholas

A small collection of Hand-Painted Ornaments inspired by those who are “living deliberately”.

Call Me Crazy

In fact, / I’d dare anyone to call me crazy / Without having taken / A single breath / Feeling in this world / With a heart like mine. / Go ahead, / Call me crazy.

Memories through the Lens of Grief

Grief, to me, has an amorphous quality like fog. It is formless and shapeless, but it has density to it that makes it feel cumbersome to carry.

Seed Planters Hand-Painted Ornaments

For the first time ever, I am offering hand-painted Christmas ornaments in my Holiday Shop this year and I am so excited! Painting ornaments is a new tradition I hope to incorporate as part of my holiday season. In fact, I named these ornaments “Seed Planters” in honor of the people out there forging their own paths by weeding out the old traditions they have outgrown, and seeding new, soul-nourishing traditions to cherish for years on.
