Today is the last day of #theRISEsummit challenge and we are asked to share something that care deeply about. I have such a heart for animals and am so happy to be able to use my business to donate to @ywacpets. Thanks to your support we have been able to give nearly $1000 for our local East Tennessee animal shelter. I am blown away that I get to paint my customers babes AND support animals in need at the same time! Be on the look out for a free calendar printable featuring adoptable pup later this week!

Spending to afternoon painting and learning with #therisesummit today. Can you believe that the RISE Summit has raised $60,000 for @pencilsofpromise! I am so excited to be a part of a group that will be able to BUILD A SCHOOL in a developing country. How cool is that?!

Hey everyone! I'm so excited to watch the Rise Conference Instagram challenge and connect with like-minded creatives. Today's challenge is to share five fun facts.... ⠀ 1. I have two dogs Maggie and Roscoe. Maggie is an American bulldog, who loves to watch tv, but gets very upset if anything animated comes on tv. ⠀ 2. Speaking of TV, my favorite embarrassing show to watch is Teen Mom. Anyone else know too much about these people?⠀ 3. My first car was a boxy old little Vovlo. I still get a smile any time I see one of those little rectangles on the road.⠀ 4. My husband Blake says that I have a great sense of direction. Somehow I always can find my way around new places, even thought I can't tell you the names of most streets.⠀ 5. I love to ride rollercoasters (i.e. Dollywood's Wild Eagle), but Blake does not so I don't get to ride them very often. I once convinced Blake to ride one of those giant pirate ship swing rides in a mall parking lot fair. I had a ton of fun, but I really don't think it ever happen again. Ha! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Do you love thrill rides or would you rather hold on to your lunch? #risingtidesociety #therisesummit

I loved adding Nola's little heart shaped collar. It is all in the details!// Blake somehow convinced me to go to a concert that starts at 8 on a SCHOOL NIGHT! I may be falling asleep at the Tennessee Theater, but I know Blake will be loving seeing his favorite artist, Jason Isbell!

I love the little spots on this pups legs! //I spent just about all of today in bed drinking a giant cherry limeade feeling sick. I had the most wild fever dreams last night! Something about learning to grow roses from the Cherokee tribe... 😂 I think I will feel better after getting lots of sleep tonight.

Raise your hand if you are also loving all of the beautiful spring blooms! I have always had a brown thumb when it comes to gardening, but with the help of my husband, we have kept more plants alive this year than we have killed. Ha! Also, my cactus that I planted on Instagram Stories is still flowering and looking good. It has only been 4 days, but I had pretty low expectations. 😂

When your client's bulldog has the best name.... ☺. I had an amazing time out or @risingtidesociety 's Tuesdays Together meeting! We discussed our personality types and how we can best use them to play up our strengths. I am an INFJ on the Myers Briggs, so I am definitely recharged by time alone being creative. Do you know your personality type? Are you more introverted or extroverted?
