I love helping artists of all ages connect to God through their creativity by guiding them step-by-step through Catholic-inspired art tutorials.
My tutorials are a free resource created with Catholic families, educators, and homeschool co-ops in mind. I want all children to have access to art education and this is my small way of offering that service to Catholic communities.
It’s a labor of love and something that I enjoy doing in my spare time. If you would like to support my channel, consider buying me a coffee or donating an item from my art supply wishlist!
I painted my daughters on a watercolor aquabord panel #watercolor #aquabord #watercolorpainting
This is arguably one of my all-time favorite pictures of the girls and it deserved to be immortalized onto an aquabord watercolor panel. The panels have a unique clay surface …which makes them a really interesting surface to paint on. My favorite thing about the boards is how easy it is to lift up pigment for things like highlights. The lift-ability can also make it a little frustrating, but it’s a good way to get out of your comfort zone and find ways to adapt.

Trying water mixable oil paints #watermixableoilpaints #painting #portraitpainting
I started this water-mixable oil painting of Holly about two years ago …
I started this water-mixable oil painting of Holly about two years ago and never finished it (until now). Life got busy and it took awhile for me to get my …groove back. I paint at my part-time paint and sip job, but otherwise I hadn’t been making many personal art projects. The motivation just wasn’t there. Honestly, I was burnt out.
Creating art for other people is what got me back into art. Whether it was making silly stickers for my parkour class, stationery and sticker sheets for my mom, or wedding portraits for friends and family, the realization that my art is a gift from God that I can share with others is ultimately what motivated me to get back into it.
Holly was 9 years old in the photo reference for this painting and now she’s almost 12. Seeing the way she lit up when I finished this painting of her was a gift to me.
On a side note… This painting was created using water-mixable oil paints. Though they’re “water-mixable,” I personally found them really hard to use without the aid of water-mixable mediums. Ha ha. The blendability was nice and the lack of nasty odors was a big plus, but I think for now I’ll be sticking with watercolors.Show More

Thankfully, it all kind of pulls together in the end.
A big congratulations to Paul and his beautiful bride, Enny, who celebrated their wedding on May 9th. This watercolor painting was …my gift to them (and the frame was courtesy of my parents – it elevated the whole piece).

I made and bedazzled an Our Lady of Guadalupe jean jacket (and you can too)! I used my Cricut machine to cut out an iron-on transfer of Our Lady of …Guadalupe, ironed it onto a jacket that was just chillin’ in my closet, touched it up with some paint, and got bedazzling.
If you have never bedazzled before, you’re in for a treat! Once you start, you’ll basically want to bedazzle everything (hence the Our Lady of Guadalupe jean jacket).
