I create whimsical, funky art from whatever inspires me—always choosing joy over perfection. If you love exploring without rules, I’m so glad you’re here. (Read More)

Let’s Make Mixed Media Art!

Kind Words

  • "I truly enjoy “joining you” on your creative adventures on YouTube. =) I think your art is so unique (and that is a very good thing, in my book). Thank you for all the inspiration, laughs, smiles, and fun you add to my day, when I watch one of your videos. =)"

    Love & Peace, Phoebe.

  • "Hi Laurie, my name is Lauri! Just found your channel and so glad I did. You make this artwork look so doable. Love the color palette. I am working on a journal and am going to use this method to make myself a journal page. Thank you so much for your time to make this video and share your talent with us."

    Lauri (aka Lulu George)

  • "Hi, Laurie! I'm a new subscriber and just from the few videos I've watched from you, you've already inspired me so much. I love your artwork and your positive attitude. You have a great personality, I can already tell. Thank you for all that you do. ❤"

    Much love, Nio Moon 🌙

  • "Laurie's art is one-of-a-kind and her soul is too."

    Teri

  • "Laurie, watching you create is like witnessing joy take shape in layers of paint and color. Your art feels personal, radiant, and deeply generous—especially in how you share pieces of yourself with us. These mixed media cards are stunning, but it’s your spirit behind them that makes them so meaningful. Thank you for continuing to inspire and connect with your community in such a beautiful way."

    Best regards, Sanela

  • "Thanks to you I am now enjoying painty papers. I can’t do your style papers but I can do my style. And cutting them into smaller pieces before I’m ready to use them gives me so many more options and ideas. This is just a fraction of what I have learned from you. Keep the ideas coming. Xoxo"

    Your friend, Colleen

  • "I am one of your followers and think your art work and approach to art is so very inspirational. My favorite thing that you do is to build layers."

    Mary Collier

  • "I have watched Laurie's art for several years now. I've taken inspiration and many moments of joy from her work. Frequently I have dealt with anxiety, panic attacks and insomnia. In these moments I can always find comfort in putting on any of Laurie's videos and just relaxing to the flow and watching the magic being made."

Tag Book Page - Inspire I was cleaning up my scraps after letting them build up on my table and I kept out a few that sparked my interest to create this little page. You can watch the process video on YT. The link is in my bio. 😊 #mixedmediart #us
Occasionally I will love a journal page so much that I will create a canvas of it. I loved the journal page from Lesson 10 in Artistic Advent so much that I created a little 4x6 canvas similar to it. I’m thinking I will make a larger canvas unl
