Hi, I'm Bonnie!

I'm an artist, designer, and teacher. I create artwork, unique gifts, and art classes for people who long to discover and express themselves in creative ways.

Learning to FLY

There have been times in my life when I've felt like a plastic bag in a wind storm; flying out of control and at the mercy of some force outside myself.

Creating art has helped me to focus and find calm in those moments so that I can guide myself through any storm life throws my way.

I believe that perfect is boring.
I believe that everyone has the ability to create any life that they imagine.
I believe there is beauty and magic all around us.
I believe in YOU.

Check out one of my fun freebies
to start living the creative life you've been dreaming of!
