“Finding the Divine”

One of the reasons I love working with fluid acrylics is that they are so versatile and can be made to look like water color without losing the vibrancy of the color and love all the vintage papers on this page and how it tells the story.

I’m also excited about the new face stencils, I hope you check them out.

As I journey through this season of my life and battle against the “blahs” I am searching for the divine, the holy, the sacred and seeing the miracles in everyday.

Enjoy the video

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!
