This piece has so many yummy layers. I wanted to make sure that all of the beautiful papers showed so I went to my acrylic inks and High flow acrylics. They added just the right amount of color and interest with out obstructing anything. The inspiration was inspired by a conversation this last week and feeling like, maybe you’ve missed your time for follow your dreams.

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!
