Hello and welcome to my blog.

My name is Rebecca Gallagher and each week I share what’s going on in the journey to build a creative voice. Hoping to bring encouragement, possibly a nudge, and maybe a giggle or two. Whether it’s documenting the journey of creating new artwork every day for two years, sharing the process of sending 50 shirts to 50 Congresswomen, or waxing poetic about my love of coffee, I hope to bring you value. I’d love to hear from you and find out what you’re into. Drop a message, question, or just say hi!


The Time Has Come

Share this:ArtPrize has officially come to an end. It truly was an honor to be a part of this event. I met amazing folks, both fellow artists as well as lovely guests who were kind enough to chat with me … Read More

ArtPrize in Progress

This weekend marks the close of ArtPrize and while it has been exhilarating to be at my venue every day talking with hundreds of people about art, dots and creativity, I am equally grateful that we scheduled a brief respite to come home for a few days.… Read More

And So It Begins…

Well friends, today marks the beginning of ArtPrize, the International Art Competition that will be my home for the next few weeks.

Dean & I had a lovely time this past Sunday trekking up to my venue, The B.O.B. and hanging my artwork. Afterwards we walked around the city and enjoyed seeing and talking with other artist’s installing their pieces at various venues.… Read More

Good Times and Giveaways

There is A LOT going on and in an exciting twist it’s not about character-building and teachable moments, but rather reaping the fruits of quite a bit of labor. My Typism book was finally delivered. In the interest of sharing all the fun, I put together a little video for your enjoyment. It’s about 4 ½ minutes of joy, laughter, tears and of course, outtakes. #staytotheend… Read More

What’s Our Intention?

I’ve heard when Oprah is in a meeting she starts by asking, “What is our intention?” Now I’m not one to repeat something just because Oprah does it, although I know people who have met her and they say she is basically warm, inspiring light in human form. All star-struckness aside, to ask yourself “what is your intention” before you dive into a task can be helpful to give yourself clarity and focus your energy.… Read More

Sharing Some Gems

Share this:Having been so focused on ArtPrize I’ve been remiss in sharing updates regarding my audio work. Truth be told “I’m reading another Amish book,” didn’t really strike me as newsworthy. However, there are 2 little gems I’ve recently been … Read More

Time for a Milestone

It’s that time of year when kids are heading back to school and parents give a collective sigh of relief having made it through another summer.  #justme?

For my little tribe of 4, this week marks a new milestone of both our daughters going away to college. I know, I know, I look TOO young to have 2 college-aged kids, but when you look at Dean the story checks out.… Read More

What’s Going On Here?

OK, so what the heck am I doing sending a blog post on a Friday?!? Well first, I want to give myself a pat on the back for knowing that this is in fact Friday.

Yup, that is the point we are at, where I am genuinely proud of myself when out of seven options I could choose, I accurately place myself in the correct day of the week. #smallwins… Read More
