A Little Holiday Cheer from MoonHawk Art! 🎄
Unique gifts, new artwork, free painting classes & a peek inside our studio!
The holidays are just around the corner, and things have been busy here at the MoonHawk Art studio!
Between creating new artwork, working on special projects, and preparing for the holiday season, John and I have plenty to share with you.
We've gathered a few gift ideas featuring our original artwork, along with some exciting studio news, free holiday painting classes, and an upcoming event where we'd love to see you!
So grab a cup of coffee (or cocoa!), get comfortable, and catch up with us!
Stories Worth Sharing, Gifts Worth Giving
Rabbit Brings the Fire
Gathered around a glowing fire on a snowy evening, the woodland animals come together in this scene from the Cherokee story How Rabbit Tricked the Buzzards.
Featuring original artwork by MaryBeth Timothy, this 6" × 8" decorative ceramic tile brings a little storytelling, warmth, and woodland charm into the home. A thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates Native storytelling and original art.
A Little Something for the Dreamers & Doodlers
Whether you're jotting down thoughts, sketching ideas, recording nature observations, or simply keeping track of everyday adventures, there's something special about having a beautiful journal close at hand.
Our journal covers feature original artwork and designs by both John and MaryBeth, making them thoughtful gifts for the writers, artists, and creative spirits on your holiday shopping list!
Warm Wishes & Creative Sips! ☕
There's nothing quite like wrapping your hands around a warm mug of coffee, tea, or cocoa on a chilly morning!
Our mugs feature original artwork and designs by John and MaryBeth, bringing a little personality and creativity to your everyday routine.
Perfect for holiday gifting, stocking stuffers, or treating yourself to something special!
A Little Peek Behind the Pages…
Something very exciting has been taking shape in the studio!
I've been working on Nature's PowWow, my first children's book that I'm both writing and illustrating.
The story follows a little girl who discovers how the sights and sounds of nature remind her of the powwows she shares with her family.
My great-niece recently helped bring the main character to life during a reference photo session, and I'm excited to share a little glimpse of the creative process with you!
There's still plenty of work ahead, but I'm enjoying watching this story come to life, one sketch at a time.
