Why taking a vacation can make you a better artist.
Saying goodbye to vacations doesn't have to be a side effect for starting your art business. Vacations are often viewed as a luxury, but what if instead of putting us behind in our work they actually make us better?
My husband has been running his own business for over 20 years, and I started my art business almost 3 years ago. We totally understand how hard it is to fit traveling into an already full schedule, and to be honest, we have sacrificed many travel opportunities for the sake of work leaving us envious of other's vacations.

I'm so excited to introduce my new custom paintings "A Mother's Crown" just in time for Mother's Day!
If you haven't learned by now, crowns have become my thing, and I am always dreaming up ideas on how to paint them. I have shared in previous blog post about how my Children of the King: Twirly Dresses was birthed with the intentions to send a message of value to young girls about their value. I'm not talking about the prideful kind of value, but the value they have to their heavenly father. We live in a world full of expectations, labels, and comparisons. Twirly Dresses is a colorful reminder to embrace who we were created to be, and when you are happy, you can't help but to dance and twirl.
