After an unexpected bout with laryngitis and a bustling market presentation, I'm back with news so exhilarating, I risk losing my voice all over again just to share it with you! Join me as I recount the lively twists and turns of painting live before an engaged audience, and how that very event has catapulted my dream into action—a dream that involves the creation of a shop and studio space that's shaping up to be a beacon of creativity in Oakwood Square.

The outpouring of support for this venture has my heart swelling with gratitude, and I'm excited to take you along for every step of this journey, including the colorful missteps. We'll be talking about everything from the joys of contributing to the local Umbrella Alley to the nuts and bolts of setting up a gallery from scratch. And with a grand opening slated for the end of July, this update is brimming with the kind of infectious enthusiasm that you can't help but catch. So, come for the ginger and turmeric tea talk, but stay for the inspiration—it's an episode that promises to leave you, just like me, smiling ear to ear.

Today’s doodle from Elle Lovey is Umbrella, perfect since the alley opened today in Louisville, Ohio!!

From the disciplined drive of a Mary Kay representative to the fluttering flight of my creative dreams, I've been on a journey that's about to land in a space buzzing with potential.

The dream is a hive—part boutique, part workshop, entirely heart. In today's episode, I'm laying out the blueprint of my aspirations, the support that's been my foundation, and the hope glimmering on the horizon as I eagerly await the decision from the property owners. It's a story of breaking barriers, just like the hardworking bee, with each hurdle overcome sweetening the honey!

I'm inviting you into my world where artistry isn't confined to galleries or studios; it's in the meals we cook, the gardens we tend, and the love we share.

My husband's recent accolades and the community projects stirring our town into a canvas of collaboration are just a few of the colors in this palette of pride. With Mother's Day reflections adding a tinge of tender nostalgia, this episode is an uplifting reminder of the 'Maya the Bee' spirit in all of us, daring to lift dreams on little wings. Join me as we celebrate the wondrous mosaic that is creativity, community, and family.

Dare to help my dreams, here is my Kickstarter!
