🎨 A Personal Note from Billie

People sometimes ask how all of this happens—how the paintings, frames, candles, giving, and matching continue week after week. The truth is: I paint the pictures, yes—but my family and I believe we are blessed to be a blessing.  In addition to painting, we have also given thousands of dollars of our own resources to help make this mission real.  
 

  We believe that beauty and generosity belong here. 

And we believe that you—our friends, neighbors, and BFFs—deserve to know just how much you've helped accomplish:

• You've helped train and equip our volunteer fire department
   
• You've brought aid to our animal shelters
   
• You’ve supported kids’ programs, medical needs, and hope in hard seasons
   
• You’ve done this through the simple act of believing in art with a purpose

The Giving Gallery is a group of monthly supporters who say:

“Keep painting, Billie. Keep giving. We’ve got your back.”

Now that I'm retiring, we are looking to keep the giving going.  Your support helps cover my material costs so I can keep painting with purpose—and it fuels the matching donations that make every dollar go twice as far.

This isn’t just support—it’s partnership.
You’re helping me turn art into action. Canvas into community. Color into compassion.

 With your help, we've already:

• Donated over $50,000 to local causes
   
• Sparked a growing network of giving in our community
   
• Created a space where art heals, inspires, and multiplies good
   

And we’re just getting started.

Together, we’re building something bigger than art.
We’re painting purpose—one piece, one gift, one name at a time.
