‘Art Stories’ was inspired by the stories that show up with every new image I find while making my paintings.
My paintings help me to find and tell stories, through them. Art in my life inspires me to expand the scope of my stories, which in turn helps me expand myself too.
Featuring 11 of my original paintings and short stories about each, you can download this free Ebook at my website, KrisCahillArt.com at this link: Art Stories Ebook.

Everything’s Falling Into Place
‘Everything's Falling Into Place’ is an optimistic piece, based on a deep core belief I've always had that somehow, if I keep going, it will all come together.
This painting was that journey for me - I knew I had to trust where it was leading me in order to find that magic for myself.
Things have to fall apart from time to time, or we are in danger of getting stuck in old ways. We are fortunate to be living in a time when every conscious choice each person makes has an impact - whether that choice is to be happy, heal yourself, let go of what doesn’t work, or bravely create something new.
As this dance continues, everything has a way of falling into place, for now.

The future belongs to a different kind of person with a different kind of mind: artists, inventors, storytellers - creative and holistic ‘right-brain’ thinkers.
