After a fantastic launch over Christmas for my Etsy shop, Advent Art Collection , I have spent the past several months creating new products and a clearer mission. Since the new images and series will not be related to the Advent season, I wanted to have a name that was more fully encompassing of the work I am creating. This is why I decided to change the name from Advent Art Collection to Evergreen Reflection .
A friend suggested using the name Evergreen a while back, and it has stuck with me ever since. Not only do I live in Minnesota, where evergreens shine proud through the snow each winter, but the strength and consistancy of the evergreen made a beautiful metaphor of hope for me.
“Like an Evergreen, Hope continues through the chill of Winter to the warmth of Spring.”
