Find Your Magic

A biweekly letter from my studio, sharing art, nature, and gentle reminders to notice the beauty in everyday life.

You’ll notice that the name has changed in my bi-weekly newsletter essays. Still me, sharing my art, nature inspiration and stories! This email newsletter is always FREE and still includes everything I always offer to you, like special discounts and behind-the-scenes inspo!

For a more in-depth version…..

I will be offering new ways to connect through my paid membership option I am calling “The Creative Circle”. This membership is for anyone who wants a little extra connection, a closer look behind the scenes and gentle prompts. My prompts for you will be flower related in honor of my first book that will be releasing in April 2026!

Below you can find all that is included in our Creative Circle!

The Creative Circle — $7/month or $70/year

A deeper connection, a peek inside the process.

Join me behind the scenes for a closer look at how the magic happens!

You’ll receive:

Studio Notes sketches, color palettes (so exciting!), and works in progress. These will be in image or video form!

Business Tips I am all about the “old school” approach when it comes to business. I am also a lover of snail mail, personal connections, and seeing people get as excited as I am about my art. I will share tips I have been using to connect with my collectors! The special touches go a long way, and sharing your art as if it’s a beautiful gift to someone special is just pure magic for both you and the collector!

Glimpses from my book and writing desk drafts, snippets, and creative musings. Creating a book is messy- in the best way possible! I’d love to share more on this with you! Maybe it’ll light your flame to create a book too!

Gentle creative prompts to spark your own ideas. Flowers are the current topic in honor of my book, so I would like to share a specific flower each month- you can draw it, take a photo, download a mood board inspired by the colors or write about it!

Monthly Phone Wallpaper a lush and vibrant album full of magic and wonder found in nature, perfect for decorating your phone with a beautiful reminder of the little wonders around us!

Books Books have truly transformed me in so many wonderful ways—honestly, where would I be without them? From art history and color theory to mindset, daily practice, and creative business, each one has the power to guide and inspire your journey.

An extra Find Your Magic essay each month deeper reflections on art, creativity, and inspiration. All the above will be included in your monthly essay!

Lastly, I would love to add a recipe each month, and I am currently working on these each time I make something simple and delicious. Most recipes will be vegan or vegetarian-friendly! Think hot cocoa, cinnamon carrots, and banana granola crunch! (And maybe even something for our feathered friends outside! ;)

This is for the kindred spirits, those who love peeking behind the curtain, seeing the messy middle, and finding beauty in the process. You will also be supporting my art business in the process.

I would love to hear from you about any suggestions or ideas you may have from me! :)

Kind Words

  • Maria’s art is truly inspiring! She brings visions to life through paintings, drawings, ornaments, photography, and more. Her work is unique, meaningful, and always stands out. If you’re looking for art with heart and creativity, Maria is the one to trust!

    ~Mike

  • Maria is a vibrant artist whose works reflect the energy and light she brings to the canvas! She has worked hard to constantly hone her skills and talents. Maria’s one of a kind paintings are not carbon copies of pictures that everyone is selling- her artwork has her unique style and freshness, elements that I always look for when purchasing art! I was privileged to sit under her teaching for oil painting recently- she was a wealth of information and a great teacher too!

    ~Hannah

  • I cannot say enough good things about Maria as a person or as an artist. She is such a kind and wonderful soul and that speaks through her artwork. You can feel her connection to nature and light in every painting. The motion and positioning of each element feels so authentic and her colors just brighten my day. I have several pieces from Maria and smile every time I look at them!
