I knew that I wanted to work with a limited color palette, but wasn’t sure what colors until I started. The brayer brings beautiful texture to these pages and the Inktense black pencil put the finishing touch and added depth just where it needed to be.

Take a risk… live with passion and have a new adventure!

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!
