Last week Andrea Garvey reached out and asked how she could share about the impact of Creatively Made Business on her life and business. Who could say no to that?! Thank you so much Andrea!   Andrea talks about where her business was before CMB and how it changed after the workshop! This short video […]

March Beauty Round Up | Inspired By Paris With all of this talk about registration opening for a 2026 Paris Art Retreat, my head (and heart) has been swirling with all things French! This month’s free beauty found round up has sweet, beautiful and fun peeks into Paris! -Jeanne

I don’t know if there is any other city in the world where I have felt the most thankful to be an artist, as Paris. It is the city dripping with beauty, inspiration, history, gardens and the invitation to be a part of it. Maybe that is what I love the most, the invitation. Paris […]

  With a $200 camcorder we created our first online art course and made over $35,000 by the time the course started.   That was 13 years ago and it changed everything with our business and put us on a new path with our creativity. I almost missed it though!   When I had that […]

This business began over 17 years ago and the #1 question I get repeatedly is asking how we have created this life. How have we worked together as a family, built something that is diverse, travel all over the world teaching and adventuring and still in a place of being open to change? I hope […]

I am constantly in awe of the beauty that is all around me if I have my eyes open to it. Sometimes I find it moving art around this new home and seeing a piece almost for the first time, feet to the ground with little glimpses that spring is coming, underlining words in a […]

My favorite mornings right now are when I wake up and I can instantly smell and hear that Kelly has a fire going in the living room. That act of kindness is an invitation to get out of a warm bed, turn the kettle on, get under the quilt made by my friend Stephanie Lee […]

  Cy Twombly has long been one of my very favorite abstract artists. I have been fascinated by his mark making language, his use of color (and sometimes complete lack thereof) and that he was diverse on canvas, paper and assemblage. Recently, as I stood in front of many of his original works a friend turned […]

        Every end of summer nothing was better than new back to school supplies. I loved getting everything organized in my Trapper Keeper (how does that age me?), picking out a new lunchbox, packages of fresh paper and sharpening all of the pencils. Not much has changed over the years except I […]

This January we started the year in sunshine, rest and also creating an outline for the content I wanted to share in Art As Worship. We came home to a polar vortex :-), taking the tree down and packing away Christmas, the urgency of a few projects and the reminder that our day to day […]

I had planned to relaunch Creatively Made Business this winter. We closed registration about a year ago to prepare for this relaunch. I was working on new content/lives/new books etc. to add to the already beautiful curriculum of CMB. I was also pulling together a list of new people I wanted to interview on the […]

The changing of seasons can always be an invitation for reflection and sometimes change. It is a physical reminder around us to take the time to notice the changes within us. Whether you are finding yourself in need of finding beauty and rest in the slower season of winter or maybe you are truly in […]
