There Will Be a Tomorrow

36x30”

Acrylic, watercolor, paint pens, ink on gallery wrapped canvas

Unsure if this is finished, but I am quite happy with it. I am feeling helpless right now and wanted to paint something to remind me that tomorrow will come… it may be s**t, but it’ll come.

Donate $25 or more to the Vermont Asylum Assistance Project (VAAP) & I’ll send you 6 stickers.

VAAP provides Vermont immigrants & community members to access to legal knowledge & so so much more. The incredible team of lawyers is located in my office studio building & have a very special place in my heart.

Let’s help just a bit with a donation to can focus on our ❤️ neighbors.

How it works:
1.) DO NOT MESSAGE VAAP WITH QUESTIONS! They know about this but are BUSY as all heck. So…
2.) DONATE at least $25 via their web platform. Link at bio.
3.) Screenshot your donation & DM it to me.
4.) include your name, mailing address and theme of stickers*
5.) I send you 6 stickers

Themes: Animals, Birds, Vermont, Kids, 🏳️‍🌈 Pride. Please note I cannot send specific stickers (that would be too much for me) so please just the theme.

Can we raise $1,000 in the next week? I think there are enough folks out there willing to help that we can.

Thanks Everyone and Big ❤️❤️ To Y’all.

Hello Everyone!

In 2025 I am committed to focusing not only on continuing to bring the joy through HoneyBee Heather, but on my other business/ passion, . This is the place where I facilitate workshops, graphic record & more. I’m kicking off the new year by offering two workshops, Intro to Canva and Intro to Sketchnoting. More info below and link in Bio.

Thank you everyone!

Iceberg Consulting is launching a series of practical skills-based in-person workshops in 2025. Emphasizing the art of skill development, these highly interactive experiential classes promise concrete takeaways and tools for immediate application.

Intro to Canva (Wednesday, January 22, 10:00-11:45am or; Tuesday, January 28, 5:45-7:30pm)

Canva is an incredibly user-friendly platform that transforms your creative vision into reality once you get the basic steps down. It empowers you to let your imagination run wild for presentations, social media, posters, art, and countless other projects!

Visual Notetaking & Sketchnoting (Wednesday, February 12, 12:00-2pm
Tuesday, March 25, 5:45-7:45)

Sketchnoting is an innovative method of taking notes that incorporates visuals, activating an entire part of your brain that would otherwise remain untapped. This workshop invites participants to explore the fundamentals of Sketch Noting: the reasons behind its use, theory, and, most crucially, the HOW through informal practice and co-creation. Sketchnoting can enhance a person’s focus, making them more engaged in meetings, classes, and beyond, transforming how individuals learn. No artistic skills are required—really!

Location: All workshops are held at 12 North Street, a shared workspace building in the Old North End of Burlington, Vermont.

Cost: Each workshop is $30. If you would like a sliding scale price, please use code: LearnForAll at checkout for a 50% off discount. If you need a further discount, please contact Mellisa at [email protected]. Money should never be a barrier to knowledge. Signing up for more than one workshop? Use the code: THANKYOU! at checkout for 20% off your total.
