I found this garden stake at the dollar store…. I wanted to see if I could use it as a mask…. I like how it turned out.

I made my own stencil… that’s what you see in the brown… it’s kind of a lattice…

I used acrylic paint, with airbrush fluid and some water in a spray bottle.

I cant wait to play a little bit more with this…. I will show you my finale next week.

After I sprayed the flower… I turned it over and let the paint drip off of it onto the page.

Hello there! I’m Shawn Petite

I’ve been teaching and creating for well over 30 years. About 15 years ago I found my art soul mate in mixed media, and it changed my life! I love the story that can be told by combining paint, texture, ink, paper and—really anything that you can imagine.

But what I’m truly passionate about is being your guide, walking with you step by step and helping you become your own hero in your creative journey.

Along my path, I’ve learned that the creating art also creates a healing space. Life can be messy and complicated and painful, but something about a paint brush can help heal your soul.

Join me on this journey of art and inspiration!
