New Functional Art For Your Home and Car!

Hi Friends,

I’m so excited to share the new additions to my online shop that bring the beauty of watercolor into your everyday life—because art isn’t just for walls!

  • Soapstone Car Coasters: These little beauties combine practicality with style. Each coaster features one of my original watercolor paintings, printed on natural soapstone.
