My heart is for you and your artist's heart.
Perhaps there’s a tug inside to create, but you are afraid you won’t be good at what you try.
Maybe other people would consider you a creative, but you feel trapped in perfectionism, pressure, and performance making your creativity more of a poison than a medicine.
Maybe you feel unworthy to call yourself an artist, but you LONG to be one in the deepest parts of your soul.
Learn how to paint using the magical medium of soft pastel as you remove the perfectionism, fear, and creative blockers standing in your way.

Do you ever fall asleep at night letting your mind dance in wildflower fields or dream of long trips to the South of France? Just me?
I’m glad you’re here.
I paint landscapes, teach, and create experiences for the hopeless romantic, cloud watcher, golden hour lover, meadow wanderer…
But most of all, I paint and create for the busy, high-achieving woman who needs a little more peace & calm, and a reminder of who she really is.
Life can be chaotic. I get it. Slowing down and getting lost in the beauty of nature helps. I hope to encourage you to find a sense of awe and wonder, in tune with the truth that’s within you.
I invite you to take a deep breath, relax your shoulders, and get lost in the beauty of the present moment.

If this is the first time we’re meeting, hi, I’m Valerie—artist, educator, and unapologetic flower-lover. I live just outside Nashville, TN, playing with flowers, pastel dust, and dreams of living—and painting—in the French countryside. I am always playing with beauty, and it is my passion to help you bring your own beauty to this world too—even if you’ve never really believed you could.
