“Listen” by Pamela Gilespie

Faces, expressions…are my favorite things to paint. Usually, I paint in my journals as there is freedom for me to create without fear of “messing up” or wasting a good canvas.
I hope you create with me and enjoy the video.

products used:
Moleskine Art Journal
Lukas acrylic paint: permanent violet, burnt Sienna, and titanium white.
Daler Rowney acrylic gesso
Stabilo All Pencil
Monte Marte charcoal pencil
Blending Stump

Hello there! I’m Shawn Petite

I’ve been teaching and creating for well over 25 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. I believe—no, I know—you are worthy of love, and I want to teach you to know that about yourself. Join me on this journey of art and inspiration!
