"The purpose of art is washing the daily dust of life off our souls." -Pablo Picasso

I hung my first piece for sale in a local gallery when I was fifteen, and ever since have been sprinkling artwork and beauty into the world sporadically — never as a full-time focus, but always as a personal passion. I believe creativity resides in all of us, and the use of that muscle is important to lift ourselves above the menial and predictable tasks of the day.

As a busy mom and marketing professional, I seek to squeeze art into the cracks. While my team at work creates incredible, polished creative, this is my corner of the internet where I get to make a mess of my own. You’ll find half-finished garden beds, art project of questionable merit, and DIY jobs that technically work.

This is where those ideas end up documented — mostly so I can remember what I’ve done, and occasionally so others can learn from my mistakes.

Enjoy! -Kate
