Paint with Jen

Playing with gouache today… no water, just straight paint on the canvas.

Cardboard. Fingers. Smearing, blending, figuring it out as I go.

This is what I reach for on a cold, rainy day.

✨ New Release: Stones of Stillness ✨

I just released a brand new painting experience, and this one feels really special.

Stones of Stillness was created as a gentle reminder to slow down… to breathe… and to come back to yourself.

The design is simple and calming, with stacked stones to represent grounding, balance, and quiet strength. It’s beginner-friendly and meant to meet you exactly where you are. No pressure. No rush. Just you and the process.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or pulled in too many directions, this is your moment to pause.

You can paint at your own pace, take breaks, and return whenever you need.

Take a look here:

You are allowed to slow down. 🤍

This meditation started as a feeling…
that sense of being ready to begin again.

Before it became a painting…
it became words.

Before it became something you could see…
it became something you could feel.

I’ve always loved blending art forms -
painting, writing, and meditation -
because they all speak in different ways.

This one is a little different…
it’s a longer meditation meant to support you through change and new beginnings.

If you’ve been in that space too, this is for you 🤍

A customer sent me this message after finishing her painting and it really touched me.

She shared that she has tremors, so her hands shake at times, but she still painted and loved the result.

This is why I create these kits!

I think this might be my favorite art kit I’ve created so far.

This painting is called Still Waters, Rising Light. There is something about the quiet water, the glowing sky, and the lotus rising up under the stars that just feels peaceful to me.

When I was working on this one, I kept thinking about how growth doesn’t always have to be loud.

Sometimes it happens in the quiet moments… when we slow down, breathe, and give ourselves space to create.

This kit is beginner-friendly and designed to help you relax and enjoy the process. Bold lines, calming water, a glowing sky, and a lotus that reminds us that even after difficult seasons, we can still rise.

The full kit will include the pre-traced canvas, paints, brushes, and a step-by-step video so you can paint along with me from home.

It will be up on the website by Monday.

I can’t wait to see your versions of this one.

It starts as “just 20 minutes”…
and somehow turns into deep focus, quiet breathing, and a strong emotional bond with your canvas.

If you know, you know 💛

Paint with Jen - where painting becomes a moment to slow down and be present.
