Painting of tall green artichoke plants with pink sky background and a foreground of grass and flowers, with a photograph of a woman wearing a yellow cardigan and patterned blouse smiling.

Art that inspires peace and playfulness.

Couldn’t we all use a bit more of that?

Inspired by nature and spirit, I love to create paintings of animals, angels, and peaceful landscapes. Plus, quirky characters often pop up in unexpected places to keep things playful.

Here on my website you’ll find paintings, handcrafted tools for inspiration, plus fun and relaxing art practices to help you reconnect with your own creative spirit (yes, you have one)!

In case you’re wondering…

Where can I purchase original paintings?
Original paintings are available by emailing me directly and in select local galleries (Art and Gift by Melody Noel and O3 Collective).

Do you offer guided painting or beginner-friendly kits?
Yes! My paint kits and video practices are designed for all levels, especially beginners. My @peacefulpaitning YouTube channel is a great place to start.

Can art really help with relaxation or stress?
Absolutely. My work is rooted in the idea that creating, even in small ways like doodling, can bring a sense of calm and connection. Even science supports this.
