There could never be enough words for the pictures or pictures for the stories, but here’s an attempt.
From opening a studio to moving my home, to finding home in another – 2011 was a year for stretching and hope and excitement like none other. Hard decisions and lessons learned and long talks...
Seriously beautiful work. Love it.
oh sweet lawd, you are amazing.
Wow- I am speechless. I love your work. You are just amazing. I am so happy I have had the pleasure of meeting you in 2011. Hope I get to see you again

Oh love all of these! Just beautiful. And I love how there are all special in there own ways, and for each place, culture etc.
When you said you were going to post this post, I kept coming to your blog to check if it was up yet. I am pretty sure I got butterflies in my tummy when I saw that you had posted it.
Love this collection, RJ. Esp the pipe pics, the barometer, all the Scotland pics, Carrie, Tia and Tyler (ummmm where are the ressst of these?), all the stairs pics, the balcony RJ+J, the underwater shots, the beach wedding, um, well pretty much all of them. You are so talented and can’t wait to see what 2012 brings your way!

OMG AMAZING. Im LOVING the sky.
Well, it’s happened.
The realities of responsible adulthood have stepped in and decided things with / without the consent of my irrational optimism.
Largest and most significant – giving up my studio.
( next week. )
I’ve had it for exactly a year, and its purpose has changed a lot since we began. My darling friend Carrie and I...

I’m sorry you have to close your beautiful shop. Beautiful Pictures!
proud of you for the grown up you are, love… hard as it may be. such sweet, good things coming!!
It is NOT a failure I think it was wonderful that you had your studio. This is an opportunity for bigger and BETTER things Best of luck my dear!
Sometimes the hardest decisions are the smartest ones
Blessings to you in your new journey!
I am sad! But at the same time very excited for what’s to come next. Love you dearly my saucy friend
sad day. i loved getting to see your studio. it really was lovely. even with boys living in your house i’m sure it’s just as lovely as your studio because you are lovely. and splatter painting note cards, that’s just awesome. i love that idea so much.
How I so wish that I could be there with you and keep the studio with you!!! I so dearly loved that place and all that it meant and it was so sad for me to leave it. Man plans his way but the Lord directs his steps. So here are to the new adventures of our little collective that is still very much alive! The best is yet to come!
Oh, Bekah J! Sad you are closing down your studio but sure whatever GOD has for you next is even better! Love you “Journey Mom!”
Great news:)
Love what you said about refusing to see this as failure but rather a smart move for you and your business – lots of times we are scared to make a decision when it means closing a door but just remember this will open new ones!
While an earthquake and hurricane are trying their best to disrupt my life and travel plans, today and this weekend are a lot like perfect.
