CANDY COLORED STUDIO EPISODE 241:

happiest fall friend! so many exciting things with the fall colors to the art shows and markets currently available! check out the show links below to access them all. do you ever feel like you’re swimming through life simply responding to all the “shoulds” you feel you ought to be doing? do you feel pressure to do say “yes” to all the things, events or life directions by the most well-meaning people? let’s talk about the big and small life choices we make that add up to big and even bigger life directions and consequences. are they helping us find joy, feel complete or becoming our best self? how can we be more intentional about our choices and allow god to invite us to create a more curated life where we can find purpose and fulfillment without regret?

CANDYcolored studio podcast episode 240:

a sneak peek of new pieces i'll be bringing to midway swiss days!! are you coming?!! it's friday august 30th and saturday august 31st from 8 am till dark. i'll attach a map below where i've circled my booth A-40 which is south of the the entertainment tent, next to the huge evergreen trees. text me if you can't find me at the event (435.709.2780).

i've been sending my email list peeks, here is a link to the latest email. if you're not on my list and would like to be, sign up here.

prints start at $45 and the largest framed are $295. original oils start at $200 for a framed circle mini. there are paris pieces, landscapes, florals with birds, bees etc. i'll have some larger pieces and even some very large pieces (up to 48x96).

my favorite moments of swiss days are the intimate and spiritual conversations shared. the great majority of these special chats have been on the topics of our heavenly mother. it never surprises me the desire we as women have to know our divine feminine. you're so loved and i hope if there's one thing you get from experiencing my art -- it is that your divine parents and savior love you personally.

CANDYcolored studio podcast episode 214:
we’ve been counseled repeatedly that it is crucial that we gain our own testimony of jesus christ in order to withstand the difficulties of our day. one small but mighty part of that -- is to better understand who we are – that we are divine children of heavenly parents – with great potential and an eternal destiny. discovering our spiritual gifts and talents will help us not only remember who we are, what we can become, but it will help us be there for others as they too seek to better understand their divine identity. “my divine identity” is a guided journal for girls, and a wonderful tool with 7 principles for women of all ages and places in life - it will help you better support the girls and young women around you. hear all about jamie’s journey & the process of creating this book. she openly shares her heart, offers suggestions for writers, and has some amazing opportunities coming soon for women. enjoy!!
