“I must have flowers always and always”  Claude Monet

Some days I need to just stop a smell the flowers. To rest the soul and truly take in all that I have to be grateful for.

Feeling the calm come over me as I breathe in the goodness of everything, is sacred.

What do you have to be grateful for? Do you need to slow down to remember all the good. Even is seasons where life is hard, this practice can make is all the more bearable.

Find your calm today. Find your sacred place to be grateful and rest your soul.

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!
