My Dotting Journey
I fell in love with dotting in 2018. During a classic Pinterest rabbit hole, I stumbled across an ornament covered in dotted patterns. It wasn’t a mandala, but the swirling dots were so beautiful that they stopped me in my tracks. Then I saw a dotted stone — and that was it. I knew I wanted to teach people how to dot, even before I fully understood it myself.
I jumped in with both feet, learned everything I could, and taught my first dotting class in August 2018. I’ve been hooked ever since.
Today, I teach exclusively online through Patreon. There are over 100 video tutorials available as replays, with new ones added every week. You’ll also find 90+ color palettes and 20+ discount codes from some of our favorite dotting creators.
I design dotting patterns that anyone — brand new or experienced — can follow to recreate beautiful dot art. On Etsy, you’ll find 80+ patterns, my handmade needle tool, and a variety of embellishments perfect for mandalas.
Sharing this art and building a creative, supportive community has become one of my greatest joys. Click the links below to explore Patreon or Etsy and dive deeper into the world of dotting.
