Sallie Reid   
​Owner

My greatest aspiration is to live my journey well. Family has always been ever present in my mind as I hope to leave a legacy of love behind for my children and grandchildren. Art has always been a creative expression of what I am passionate about. The sound of laughter is the color of joy to my mind. I dream  to create the atmosphere of heaven here on earth for all people to come and explore the goodness of God. After 25 years of raising my family I finally finished my formal education from Sam Houston Sate University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art. 
 
I bring the art world to the wedding experience offering a unique caveat.  I create a painting of your love story and write a blessing for your marriage.   I can also do a live painting of your wedding at the reception if you like.

I love to paint the emotive feeling I intuitively feel after visiting with the wedding couple. I write the love story blessing that goes along with the painting.  It is my unique gift for the couple that marries at Bluebird Haven to be presented at the wedding reception as an exciting reveal moment or to be given in private, it is your choice. Your painting and your love story blessing are as special as you are.
