    Honored, Thank you Montana!

    Hello friends! I was surprised, humbled and hugely honored to find this post on the Choose Montana social media pages on Facebook and Instagram. My friends at Hyalife gave me a heads up and made my day! This photo was taken at one of my all-time favorite festivals, the Montana Folk Festival in beautiful Butte, Montana. Feeling inspired to create more art - go for it :D!
