A Heartfelt Thank You to Juliette Crane

An Artist & Writer Here on Substack

My recently inspired artwork was Inspired by her beautiful art classes and magical owls.

I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to the incredible artist, Juliette Crane for her beautiful, generous heart and the inspiring art classes she shares with us all through email and on Substack.

Juliette, your art classes are more than lessons, they’re invitations into a magical, gentle world where creativity feels safe, freeing, and joyfully expressive. Every time I open one of your emails or scroll through your vibrant, soulful paintings, I feel both comforted and encouraged to try something new.

This owl, titled “Feathered Daydream”, was born from your inspiration. With every brushstroke, I felt the influence of your whimsical creatures and the playful, intuitive energy you bring to all that you do. Your work has helped me reawaken parts of myself as both an artist and a dreamer.

Thank you for sharing your art, your wisdom, and your heart with so many of us. You’ve made a difference in mine.

A Gentle Prompt for You:

What artist are you following who has inspired you to take a class, try a new medium, or explore a technique you hadn’t considered before?

I’d love to hear about the creatives who are lighting your spark these days—feel free to share in the comments or simply reflect quietly in your sketchbook or journal. 💛

With love and endless appreciation,
