How does a creative gather beauty and then interpret it? What object, light, and pattern begs to be captured through paint and canvas? The eye of the creative is one of the most beautiful gifts to ourselves and others. I have been an admirer and now a friend of Marian Parsons (Miss Mustard Seed) for many years. Whether she is designing a home, refurnishing furniture or painting a still life…how she SEES  and CAPTURES the world and then shares it is one of her most beautiful gifts.

Join Marian Parsons for her next online course on our creative network and this time it is all about painting a still life. With Marian’s style and the objects that she chooses to capture, her work always feel modern and new but grounded in history!
