The Lord is not slow concerning His promises. (II Peter 3:9) He gives beauty for ashes. (Isaiah 61:3) 

This is the scripture that came to mind when I received the Dictionary page stencil from Shawn.  I had been looking at various inspiration boards so the two just came together for me. So grateful to be a part of His flock, knowing that all things work together for good…

Enjoy the Video!

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!
