  • Original 4×4 Canvas
  • Giclee Print

Every painting has a story, and I’m so excited to share one of my latest creations with you—“Hope in Bloom.” This joyful little abstract began as a 4×4 inch original painting on canvas, bursting with color and positive energy.

With a playful mix of turquoise blues, sunny yellows, soft lavenders, and lively pinks, this mini artwork feels like a celebration of movement and renewal. Though it’s small in size, it brings a big dose of happiness to any space—perfect as a shelf sitter, desk accent, or a unique gift.

Because I fell in love with the colors and the uplifting feeling this piece carries, I decided to make it available as Giclée fine art prints for those who want to bring a larger version of Hope in Bloom into their home.

✨ About the Prints
Each print is professionally produced on premium 310g Giclée paper with archival pigment inks for rich, lasting color. They capture the same vibrancy and brushstroke detail of the original, making them a beautiful addition to any wall.

Prints are available in multiple square sizes:

  • 8×8 inches
  • 10×10 inches
  • 12×12 inches
  • 16×16 inches

Each comes with a 0.5-inch white border, making it simple to frame and display.

Whether you choose the petite original or one of the larger prints, Hope in Bloom is all about adding a spark of light, joy, and color to your day.

If your walls are calling out for something fresh and uplifting, I’d love for you to explore Hope in Bloom in my Flowing Waters Art Shop on Etsy. You’ll find both the original painting and the Giclée prints waiting to brighten your space.

Thanks so much for stopping by—I can’t wait to see where Hope in Bloom finds its forever home!

Whispers of Light ✨

As an artist, I often find myself deeply connected to the pieces I create. Each brushstroke carries its own story, and sometimes I like to sit with a painting for a while—reflecting on the process, making sure it feels complete, and letting the piece breathe before deciding what comes next.

Whispers of Light, my newest 18×24 abstract, is one of those pieces I took my time with. I blogged about it back in May, sharing how I paused in the middle of the night and waited for morning light to guide me. That quiet moment became part of the painting’s journey.

With its luminous layers of turquoise, rose, golden peach, and warm earth tones, this piece carries a sense of calm and gentle radiance—like a breath between thoughts. I’ve truly enjoyed pouring my heart into it, and now it’s ready to step beyond the studio.

It’s always a little bittersweet to move a painting from my studio into my shop—like closing a quiet chapter—but it also brings me so much joy to imagine it finding a new home. I love the thought of its soft glow becoming part of someone else’s story.

✨ Whispers of Light is now available in my Etsy Shop: Flowing Waters Art Shop

If this piece speaks to you, I’d be delighted for you to take a closer look. Thank you for being part of my creative journey and for supporting handmade art.

Wishing you a day filled with light and inspiration!

Watercolor Abstracts: A Creative Journey

  • Work in Progress
  • Glitter
  • Gold

I hope everyone has a fun holiday weekend ahead! I know I’m ready to slow down a little and soak in some much-needed relaxation. Lately, I’ve been doing a bit of rethinking, and one thing has become clear—I need to spend more time in the studio. To ease myself in, I decided to play around with some new watercolor abstracts.

The first piece (photo one) is still a work in progress. I love the way the vivid colors flow and mingle together, though I made the center line a bit wider than I intended I still like it overall. That’s the fun of experimenting—it all becomes part of the process.

For the second piece, I decided to add a touch of glitter along the middle line. It’s subtle in the photo, but in person it gives the painting just the right amount of sparkle and magic.

On the third, I couldn’t resist trying shimmering gold. It paired beautifully with the warmer tones and instantly gave the piece a glowing, almost autumn-like feel. With cooler days right around the corner, I’m looking forward to exploring more warm, cozy color palettes that capture the spirit of fall.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing this creative moment with me—I hope the changing season brings you inspiration too. As we welcome September, I’d love to know: what colors or little rituals help you embrace the fall season?

Wishing you a relaxing and joyful Labor Day weekend!

Whispers of Light: A Painting Comes to Life

Some paintings take their time with me. They don’t rush, and they don’t reveal everything at once. Whispers of Light, my newest 18×24 inch abstract, is one of those pieces.

It started months ago with soft washes of color and textured movement layered onto canvas. I blogged about it back in May—how I paused at midnight, resisting the urge to keep going, and waited for the morning light to guide me. That moment of stillness helped me see the work with fresh eyes. I didn’t know it at the time, but that pause was part of the painting’s story too.

As I added final touches in the weeks that followed, I kept returning to that early light—the quiet, glowing energy that filtered through the window that morning. The colors in this piece—turquoise, rose, golden peach, and warm earth tones—carry a softness, a hush, almost like a breath between thoughts. There’s boldness in the movement, yes, but also a sense of calm rising through the layers.

That’s where the title came from. Whispers of Light felt right—it speaks to the way this piece came together: slowly, gently, and with trust in the quiet moments.

Now that it’s finished, I feel both proud and at peace with it. It’s a reminder to listen to intuition, to light, to softness. To know when to pause, and when to move forward.

Thank you for following along on this painting’s journey—it means so much to have you here.

💫 Have you ever worked on something that unfolded slowly and surprised you in the end? I’d love to hear about it in the comments!

Wishing you a weekend full of quiet joy and radiant little whispers of your own.

Vibrant Watercolor Abstracts Inspired by Summer

Summer is such a wonderful time to slow down a little—soaking up the sunshine, enjoying warm breezes, and maybe even gathering around the grill for barbecues and s’mores (I’m a fan of the dark chocolate kind!).

That easygoing, feel-good energy has definitely made its way into the studio lately. I’ve been playing with new color combinations that feel just as vibrant and full of life as summer itself. These latest watercolor abstracts came together with a mix of sap green, yellow, and turquoise—a palette that reminds me of leafy greens, golden light, and those carefree outdoor moments we all look forward to.

There was no big plan when I started—just a curiosity to see how these colors would play together on the page. I let each layer unfold naturally, blending and overlapping, following the movement of the water and trusting the process.

To add a little extra magic, I brought in some gold metallic watercolor. I love how it shimmers in the light—just enough to give the piece a bit of glow without overpowering the softness of the paint.

Each piece came out a little different, but they all share that same layered energy—spontaneous, organic, and full of little surprises. It’s always fun to step back and notice the textures, tiny details, and unexpected shapes that show up along the way.

Lately, I’ve been reminded how energizing it is to try something new, especially with color. Just letting go and seeing where it takes you.

Do you have a favorite? I’m always curious what colors or details people connect with most.

Thanks for dropping in! Wishing you a weekend filled with color, joy, and a little time to play.

Creating Vibrant Abstract Paintings

Posted on by

Two weeks ago, I shared an abstract painting born from tool experimentation—and I couldn’t stop at just one! This follow-up piece leans into bolder, more saturated colors: electric blues, vibrant greens, and deep purples, with bursts of gold and playful pink marks. I continued to use my silicone wedge tools and non-traditional brushes to apply and scrape paint, letting the layers build and textures emerge.

What I love most about this piece is how it feels alive—there’s energy in the jagged lines, soft scribbles, and dots that dance across the surface. I didn’t overthink it. I just let the colors lead and responded in the moment.

Sometimes, breaking away from the “right way” to use a tool opens the door to something unexpected—and beautiful.

Thanks so much for stopping by and joining me on this creative journey. Have a wonderful weekend!
