The Story

Mundane days
to milestone markers

We all have “days of small beginnings”, as the Bible reminds us.

My humble beginnings and foray into modern hand lettering can all be witnessed on my Instagram feed.

I’ve purposely left my feed as is—unchanged since I started IG, way back when the native IG filters and vignette frames were all the rage to use on Instagram photos. And it’s for this reason:

it's a reminder that there is always growth and wonder in our journey.

And it’s often much more than we realise, especially when we look back on those seemingly ordinary, small days when we’re starting out something…perhaps even quite awkwardly (yup, been there, felt that!).

Or those ordinary days when we’re plodding along without acknowledgement, appreciation or attention from others.

It’s actually these very simple, almost quite un-extraordinary days that are the crucible for something of significance…if we dare to persist!

And then,

something wonderful

As my style, technique and knowledge in digital lettering and illustration began to develop from weekly practice and immersion, so did the desire to expand their placement beyond Instagram.

Creating hand lettered art prints and plant pots as Christmas gifts became new and fun things to do.

And it made me realise...

perhaps more examples of Scripture could—and should!—be in our everyday lives.

it's simply this...

to make his word known

I have long-regarded the passage of Deuteronomy 6 as something I want expressed in my home, because His Word is eternal and powerful!

Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates.

DEUTERONOMY 6:4-9

While we may not be able to write them on every door frame or gate of the home, we can create a space and means for His Word to be visible throughout the home.

FAST FORWARD TO TODAY

BIGGER THAN MY DREAMS OR PLANS

And that’s why this little corner of the internet sprouted:

to provide Scripture-based art and Spirit-led encouragement to remind us of Adonai’s unchanging promises of truth, love and victory for those who believe in His Word.

It’s much more than a Shop, though.

This is a place where you’ll find a growing collection of faith-based encouragement and resources to support you in living your God-created identity.

I hope it blesses you greatly!
