The Signature Collection Is Here (and It’s So Me!)
I’m so excited to finally share this with you… my NEW! Signature Art Kit Collection is officially released. This collection has been on my heart for a long time, and bringing it to life feels incredibly personal. These are Christian design art kits created by me, inspired by my faith, my story, and my creative style. This collection isn’t trendy or generic. It’s me in paint form.
If You Feel Nervous About Your Calling, Read This
Have you ever felt nervous right before doing something important? That shaky feeling in your chest, the thoughts that say, “What if I mess this up?” or the quiet fear that whispers, “I’m not ready.” That’s exactly how I felt the night I shared my heart about the Creative Ministry Collective. And here’s what God showed me in that moment: feeling nervous doesn’t mean you’re doing the wrong thing. Often, it means you care deeply and you’re stepping into something that truly matters.
When the Noise Fades: What God Often Shows Us at the End of the Year
As Christmas approaches, the pace of life starts to change. The days feel shorter, and the evenings are meant to be quieter… unless you live with kids or grandkids who treat bedtime like a suggestion or suddenly find a second wind after dinner. but even with the noise and chaos, this season has a way of slowing us down on the inside and inviting reflection.
A New Chapter for Paint & Purpose: Introducing Creative Purpose Ministries
Hey friend! I’ve been praying over this for so long, and I finally feel ready to share the vision God is growing inside this little corner of the internet. If you’ve been around Paint & Purpose (or Imagine Nation Paint) for any length of time, you know my heart has always been to blend creativity, community, and Jesus in a way that feels real, safe, and inviting.
As I’ve been preparing for future Praise Painting nights in 2026… faith-based painting events for churches, women’s groups, Bible studies, and communities… the Lord has been tugging on my heart. What started as a simple idea to combine worship and creativity has turned into something deeper: a calling to create spaces where people can meet Jesus in unexpected, beautiful ways.
Step Into Your Purpose… Because Jesus Is Coming Soon
My heart has been heavy lately. Really heavy.
Y’all, Jesus is coming back. And it’s soon. Like so soon that I can hardly think about anything else. Every time I scroll the news or read the Word, it feels like prophecy is unfolding right before our eyes. Revelation isn’t just a story anymore, it’s happening. It’s both terrifying and so incredibly hopeful at the same time.
Breathe, Create, and Paint with Me: Free Waymaker Painting Tutorial
Let’s be real… life gets heavy. Some days it feels like you’re juggling kids, work, chores, and still trying to hold it all together. And by the time the house finally quiets down? You’re too tired to even think about doing something for yourself. But here’s the truth: you were never meant to live on empty. You were created to create. And even 30 minutes with a paintbrush in your hand can shift your whole day.
That’s why I put together the Waymaker Painting Tutorial — a completely free, step-by-step paint session you can do right at home. Think of it like a little creative retreat waiting for you at your kitchen table. No stress, no pressure, just paint + worship + a reminder that God still makes a way.

Consider This Your Creative Intervention
Do you ever scroll through your Facebook memories, stumble across posts from years back, and cringe a little? Maybe it was a time when everything felt heavy, and your posts reflected that—comments filled with frustration, negativity, and a real lack of joy. I went through this exact revelation recently, looking back at my posts from 2009 to 2011. All I could think was, “Oh my gosh, I was so negative. I was so miserable!”
Back then, I was carrying a lot—grief from losing a best friend, endless responsibilities, and the fairly new struggles of "adulting" that hit us all. But there’s one thing I can clearly see now, two thoughts that stand out the most: 1) Thank God for how far He’s brought me since then, and 2) Why the heck wasn’t I painting? Painting had always been my outlet, my therapy in high school. It was my way to escape and reconnect with myself, but somewhere along the line, I let it slip away.
Jesus Music, Memories, and a Little Magic: Our First Concert with CAIN!
Back in August, I got to experience something truly special with my son, Cam—we went to his first concert! We headed over to Osborne Baptist Church in Eden, NC, for an unforgettable night of music, thanks to K-LOVE Radio. The headliners were CAIN, one of my all-time favorite groups, and it was such an incredible experience! It was the perfect opportunity for some Mama-and-Cam time, and it’s a memory I’ll treasure forever.
