Free Art & Faith Journaling Tips…
Happy February ladies!
Wow, January flew by didn’t it? I had a full month getting this year’s devotional written and I’m happy to say it is off to my editor! Here’s a few of the photos that are making it into this year’s book:
I did put a survey together on my IG asking which cover photo to choose, if you want to check that out. This one won, by FAR:
Behold Him
In Awe of God: 7 Days of Art, Journaling, and Reflection
Please pray that it get’s to me before I leave for the first retreat of the year… in Paris this April!
Scholarship Update:
As you know, the Scholarship recipient was picked last month, and she is SO excited to be joining us this June in Lake Como, Italy! Thank you again to everyone who applied. I’ll be starting the application process for 2027 much earlier than last year, so be on the lookout for that information in the months to come.
2026 Art & Faith Creative Retreats
Summer in Lake Como, Italy
Speaking of the June retreat in Lake Como, we only have TWO apartments left! One is for single occupancy and the other one can be double or single occupancy. So if you’ve been thinking about joining us, now is the time to Register! We’d love to have you join us and be a part of this very special retreat. You can find all the details on this retreat HERE.
I hope you’ll follow along when our Lake Como retreat is happening, (May 29 - June 6) because I’ll have daily updates, GIVEAWAYS and even some LIVES!
AND, because this year’s devotional will be done well before this retreat in Italy, I’ll have some copies of this years devotional in my SHOP ahead of this retreat if anyone wants to follow along with us during that week. All my devotionals are theme based, and on top of the daily devotional part they have creative art and journaling prompts that you can do from anywhere in the world!
Fall in New England
Our last retreat for 2026 is in Vermont & Maine! This one has some spots left and we’d love for you to come away with us to this beautiful part of New England.
We’ll start our mornings with devotions in God’s Word, beautiful breakfasts together and meaningful conversations.We’ll explore Vermont’s scenic backroads, create art in our sketchbooks and take a hands-on pottery class at Farmhouse Pottery. And, we’ll end our time together in Portland, Maine, exploring the rugged coastline and iconic lighthouses. This retreat is SO beautiful and it’s in the U.S. for those who would like to join us a little closer to home!
So, if you’re longing for beauty, creativity, and deeper conversations of faith with other like-minded women, I’d love for you to come create with us in New England! You can find all the details and Registration for this retreat HERE. 🍂
Lastly, I’ve been posting videos on YouTube every Saturday and I forget to share them on here too!

Here’s the latest one on Art & Faith Journaling:
This coming Saturday I’ll be sharing a fun video on my Art Haul from Europe last fall. It’ll share all the vintage markets we went to, art supply stores we visited and all the fun items I brought home from six weeks in France & Italy, so don’t miss this one!
Have a great rest of your week everyone! I hope the video above blesses you in some way. I was feeling quite anxious last week and this video shares how I recentered myself in God’s Word during a busy and stressful week.
Hugs to all,
Laura
