THE PROJECT

Artwork to make you happy, from one person to another.

​

Art is about connection, community and inspiration.  I started "Specks of Stars" project as an investigation into these ideas.  I take empty canvases and have people write directly on them:  something happy, encouraging, or hopeful.  Whatever they think someone out there might need to hear.  Then, I paint them, embedding the message under the paint.  I write on the back the message as well.  When someone takes one home, I have them write the message for the next painting.  It makes a chain of connection through art with the goal to make your every day just a little brighter. 

 

THE PROCESS

Thoughtfully painted with love.
