Hello, Art and Design Friends!I hope you've had a heartfelt holiday season connecting with friends and loved ones, as well as some quiet solitude to reflect upon and appreciate the gifts you have to offer. What gifts do you love to share with the world? Your time, enthusiasm, creativity, humor, wisdom? Live in the knowledge that you are a gift to the world. My gifts shine through artful expression, meaningful brand designs, and unforgettable flavors. I hope these influences will inspire an appreciation for beauty. You are a gift. Happy Holidays to you and yours! |

Loft and Shadows Sometimes the journey is as much of a gift as the destination. This painting was inspired by a Southwestern road trip... a perfect day to hike and hunt chanterelle mushrooms in the mountains outside of Telluride while appreciating our beautiful environment and foraging the goodness of Colorado. The skies were magical that day... the shadows danced across the landscape, echoing the lofty clouds above. "Loft and Shadows" diptych of two 24" x 48" | acrylic on canvas | | |

Elevate Style Coaching Brand Michelle Campbell's Elevate Style Coaching is a gift to all who partake in her consulting. Michelle transforms how clients feel about themselves on the inside by renewing their style on the outside. She creates stylish outfits that ensure you feel confident and pulled together, reimagines the clothing you already have and fills in the gaps, and discovers what cuts of clothing and colors are most flattering. I can speak as a client of Michelle's – the process is transformational. A style coaching gift certificate would make a perfect last-minute Christmas gift! |

Miller Family Sugar Cookie Cutouts To my family, there's nothing more representative of holiday baking than decorated sugar cookies! These are the most tender, fluffy sugar cookie you'll ever have. The sour cream in this recipe creates a lightness that is a unique treat. I remember baking these as a child, and it's heartwarming to decorate the same recipe with my college-age kids. With cream cheese frosting (and LOTS of sprinkles), these cookies are all you need for a complete cookie tray. Deliver liberally as gifts to neighbors and loved ones! | | |
