Hi, I’m Shaunna!

I am so thankful you’re here. At the heart of all I do, is me, at home, typing my words and keeping my hands in paint.

My Story
A small painting of an open window with a view of leaves outside, surrounded by various mixed paint colors on a white surface.
Shaunna standing in shallow ocean water at sunset, wearing a white shirt and blue shorts, looking down at the water.
An art workspace with watercolor supplies, a paint palette, a sketchbook with a drawing of Cape San Blas, Florida, and a painting of beach umbrellas and the ocean.
Close-up of a scoop of green pigment powder on a spoon with some powder sprinkled around.
A small landscape painting of a garden scene with trees, bushes, and flowers, created with oil paints on watercolor paper, surrounded by painting tools including a palette knife, a paintbrush, and tubes of oil paint.
Close-up of four watercolor paint pans in a palette, with red, black, white, and red colors.
A box of pastel chalks in various colors, organized in separate sections.
Pink pigment powder with a red sphere of oil in the center, scattered on a white surface.
A desk with various notebooks, paint swatches, and stationery items including pens, scissors, and a fabric roll. There are also watercolor paint samples and a sketchbook, suggesting an artist's or designer's workspace.
