Creative Community
Frequent highlighting of artistic individuals and creative companies:
May 2023 A Magical Place:
If you’ve never ventured out to Canyon Lake, TX then this is a trip well worth it. Canyon Lake has literally one of the most magical crystal shops I’ve ever been in! Nature Rocks Gift Shop has some of the most rare finds and
the owners are super approachable and knowledgeable. It’s no surprise that Jennifer and Caleb have raving reviews on their site but I’m also in awe of the community they are building around their business. They host regular events to encourage a wide variety of creative entrepreneurs. They are focused on growing their vendors, audience, and spiritual offerings. You can check out their stacked monthly events calendar on their Facebook page.
I’m so thankful to have ventured into this shop and found connections to some wonderful people who have created a place where so many beautiful and creative people can gather and be inspired. I’m personally humbled to have been given the opportunity to feature a few of my paintings in their shop and very much looking forward to my next trip out to this magical place!
February 2023 Catching Sunlight:
Mzelle's Style's is sparkling a little magic out into the world and surpassing her buyer's expectations with free shipping, superior packaging, and a detailed informational card with purchases. All of the suncatchers are beautifully handmade and combine dancing sunlight with the natural sparkle of semiprecious stones. This Amethyst Cluster Heart Suncatcher is a favorite and would make a wonderfully unique gift. I encourage you to follow, like, shop and connect on Instagram or Facebook.
January 2023 Uniting Healing and Beauty:
Charms of Light launched in 2004 by a spiritually connected individual who felt compelled to pursue her lifelong passion. Caryl has always felt intuitively guided and has been drawn to the beauty of raw gemstones and natural stones. It's obvious she has poured her heart and soul into building her business, creating purposeful jewelry, and thoughtful home accents. You can feel the love radiating with healing energy throughout her site and I'm amazed by the depth of fascinating details she's included. I love the variety of product offerings and that she's open to creating custom pieces. Sending gratitude to Caryl for taking the time to explain the unique qualities of each crystal and even creating a guidance map with a wealth of information to help each person to find the best gemstone for them.
November 2022 Capturing Authenticity:
Little Human Photography has an amazingly creative human focusing her lens on the bigger picture. Sara LeViseur is able to capture connection, love, nature, and raw authenticity in her photos. Her calming, humble, and patient presence as a photographer puts all of her subjects at ease. You can see the realness shine through no matter if she's capturing a celebration, a family, furry friends, or the tiny details of a butterfly. The prices are reasonable and the talent is unmatched. Here's Little Human Photography's Facebook page to check out her work and book your next session in Austin or surrounding areas.
October 2022 Young Artist Highlight:
Alexis Monet is a young artist who has always had an artistic eye and has been developing her talent since she was in elementary school. She loves to sketch and paint and has an interest in creating short films. I can already feel the deep meaning and inspiration in her art. I'm excited to see what she does with her talent as she moves into adulthood. I would encourage you to follow her on Instagram!
