One small painting.
One more reason to smile when you walk by.

That’s the idea behind The Kitchen Table Club.
Each month, I send a small original painting through the mail. Not a print. Not a reproduction. An actual piece of art made by hand.

They’re small enough to sit on a shelf, lean against a wall, live on a desk, or brighten up a quiet corner of your home.
Over time, those little moments add up.

If you’d like a little more art in your life,
I’d love to send one your way.

Join The Kitchen Table Club through the link in my bio.
I appreciate you 🙏

Being delightfully pointless
is how many wonderful things begin.
A painting.
A new idea.
A dragon riding a bicycle.

You never really know.
That’s the thing about play.
It doesn’t tell you where it’s going before you start.

Most of us spend our days being useful.
The art-making process gives us a chance to be delightfully pointless for a little while.

That’s a big part of what we do in Spice Art Club.
We show up.
We make art.
We follow our curiosity.
We surprise ourselves.

If you’d like a little more wonder, play, and art in your life, come join Spice art club community.

Doors are open through June 14.

Nobody joins a gym because they’re already fit.
They join because they want to become fit.

Art works the same way.
You don’t wait until you’re inspired.
You create conditions where inspiration can find you.

That’s what Spice Art Club is.
A weekly practice.
A creative workout.
A community of people showing up for their art.

Open now through June 14.

Somewhere along the way,
many of us stopped measuring our days by what we made and started measuring them by what we accomplished.

The art kid in us had a different scorecard.

Did you make something?
Did you play?
Did you surprise yourself?

Spice Art Club is a weekly invitation to spend a little more time with that art kid.

Doors close June 14.
Come make your dragons with us.
Or squirrel or flowers, or dinosaurs.

I’ve spent a lot of years thinking the goal was better paintings.
These days I think more about the practice itself.

The paintings come and go.
Styles change.
Opportunities come and go.

But the practice is the thing that carries us through all of it.

Spice Art Club was built around that idea. Not chasing better paintings, but creating the conditions for more of them to happen

Doors are open until June 14. 🚗✨

That’s what makes them interesting.
