How My Love of Painting Began (Again!)
I discovered my love of painting in my twenties. During that time, I even owned a craft supply shop where I taught a variety of arts and crafts classes. My absolute favorite classes were always the paint sessions, where people could relax, be creative, and enjoy the process of making something with their own hands.
After several wonderful years, I eventually closed the shop, and as life became busier, painting slowly faded into the background.
A few years ago, my husband reminded me just how much I loved it. For Christmas four years ago, he surprised me with canvases, brushes, and paints. It turned out to be one of the best gifts he has ever given me (though he might not agree!). That gift rekindled my creativity and inspired me to start painting again.
Since then, I’ve been painting every chance I get. I find it incredibly relaxing and love experimenting with different colors and techniques. One of the things I enjoy most is creating unique finishes using a variety of tools—everything from traditional brushes to sponges, bubble wrap, and even baby wipes.
Painting brings me so much joy, and I love sharing that creativity with others through the designs I offer and paint kits.
