Welcome!
Reduce stress, increase joy, find a supportive community through art!
I'm Deb Brown, owner of Art & Grace and the Art & Craft VIPs membership.
Like so many women, I felt immense stress and pressure from being pulled in many directions. As my mom's Alzheimer's progressed, my stress was at an all-time high.
I used art as a way to relieve stress and to put just 30 minutes (or an hour if I was really lucky) of joy into my days. I looked forward to my art time. I could forget my troubles while I was creating. I used that time to pray and get filled back up to face the next day.
My mom passed away in August of 2019 and I was heartbroken. I couldn't create for a while.
After a few weeks, I realized I needed that art. It was the thing God used to reduce the anxiety I was constantly feeling over the last few years. I started doing it more often and for longer amounts of time. I loved the art, I had made friends in the online art community, and I wanted to show other women how helpful it could be if they were in stressful situations or life stages like I had been.
I started a mobile paint party business in December of 2019.
In April Covid restrictions put my mobile business on hold. I began providing art kits to go and would hand deliver or ship them out. I started going live on Facebook teaching and providing tutorials online.
I went from helping women in just my community to women all across the country.
We were all in similar situations and more isolated than ever before, so art online was a perfect way to connect and help them but from the safety of our own homes. I created an inexpensive monthly art membership for those who wanted to get more in-depth help and projects in a more intimate space...a community.
Our group is about more than just the art & crafts we do.
We create together, share photos, and many of us pray for each other too. It has become a very supportive, encouraging community.
If this sounds like something you need too, we would love to have you!
