Art is a powerful way to infuse personality into a space. Kristi discuss how a single piece can transform a room and tell your unique story. - Creativity is a Daily Practice
Kristi shares how she carves out time to create regularly, often drawing inspiration from nature, color, and her own emotional landscape. Even 20 minutes of focused time matters. - Balance is Always Evolving
As a mother, business owner, and artist, Kristi talks candidly about the ebb and flow of balancing it all—and giving yourself permission to not do it perfectly.
