Through the use of warm, earth-inspired tones, gentle brushstrokes, and soft textures, the artist’s work captures the essence of nature and brings it into your living space. Serving as gentle reminder to slow down and offering you a soft place to land, even if just for a moment. Bringing peace and comfort to both your heart and home.

Katlyn Gipson

Katlyn is one of the first artists we partnered with and she also happens to be a part of our team! A graphic designer by trade, she has enjoyed the challenge of taking inspiration and putting those ideas to paper. When she's not at Joyfully Said, you'll likely find her in the garden, at her sewing machine, or cooking up something delicious. You can view her art here.

Nicole Mehl

Nicole is an artist from small town Indiana. She married the boy next door and together they have four children. She creates art in her studio, a little room in the basement of her home. This space is like a personal sanctuary, the place where she can work with her hands and connect in prayer and worship with the Lord. Her paintings are made intuitively, she works in the moment and there usually is no plan for what the final outcome will be. Nicole hopes that her work reflects peace and evokes a longing for what is eternal to the person that is encountering it. You can view her art here.

Katie Garrison

Tessa Brown

Tessa is an abstract and impressionist artist from Texas. Her primary subject matter is nature, but inspiration comes from all around: emotions felt from old photographs, the way her mood shifts when she hears one of her favorite rainy day songs, or the magic of reading a fairy tale to her kids. 

Her desire is to paint paintings that stir emotions and welcome nostalgia. Because art should remind you of your most special memories, emotions, and dreams. For Tessa, art is a page in a love story.

Tessa paints from her studio in Kyle, Texas, where she lives with her husband, Thaddeus, and children, Lily and Moses. You can view her art here.

She has a love for slow mornings with the smell of coffee, afternoon naps, good food and a life peppered with humor and sarcasm. She lives in Boston with her husband and two kids.
