Whirlwind at Magnificent Mile Art Fest 2025

What a weekend.

The Magnificent Mile Art Festival was truly a whirlwind of color, connection, and creativity! From the moment we opened the booth on Saturday morning, I felt the love from collectors, old friends, fellow artists, and even passersby who were just drawn in by the energy.

Thank you to everyone who came out — whether you stopped by to say hi, added a piece to your collection, or shared kind words about the work. I’m always amazed at how art brings people together. This weekend, I got to see that magic up close.

I debuted new originals and framed prints at the show, and I’m so excited to see where they’ve landed. I’ll be posting photos of happy collectors, booth views, and a few behind-the-scenes moments from the fest — including my dragonfly companion who kept me company through 50 mph winds (yes, really — shout out to the art gods for holding the tent down 🙏🏽).
