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.

jamie harmon’s guided journal for girls: my divine identity
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!!
an art trunk or treat, sonja solbakken’s grand opening, how to avoid being a starving artist with the profit first method and a red pill about our earth
do you love the byu moa as i do?! i have so many sweet memories that began in college and later spilled into visits with our kiddos. this next week i’ll be participating in their “Halloween Art CARnival” – an art trunk or treat of sorts – Monday October 24th at 6 pm. Also, a beautiful new home, design, textile, art & apparel shop has opened in Salt Lake with a Scandi vibe full of goodness. is the “starving artist” thing real?! unfortunately, yes. there are lots of ways to avoid it, being more organized, time-conscious, intentional with the events we participate in, making sure our pricing ensures profitability – there’s also a “profit first” method that is helping carl and i with our businesses and i think it’s another sure way to avoiding the unsuccessful mindset and lifestyle. finally, a red pill on our earth – a list of topics you can check out.
a commission nightmare, when artists should use various revenue streams, inappropriate material in our schools, big tech & government agencies controlling narrative
sharing my latest nightmares, lol -- probably the most bizarre yet. as an artist, is the income you're bringing in coming from various sources? how do you know which ones are best for you and where to put your time? do you have kids in public schools and how is your community ensuring that proper material is available to them? did your public schools participate in "banned book week" and how did you feel about it? i've got a ton of questions on this subject -- not a lot of answers, but i thought we could put our heads together on the topic and see what we think. speaking of opinions, did you see the recent senate hearing with big tech, josh hawley of missouri and louisiana's ron johnson? they revealed weekly email communication between government agecies (cdc) and big tech facebook (meta) regarding misinformation and how to controll/censor certain topics, opinions and accounts.
