There’s lots to explore here
There is nearly 15 years of blog content, detailing my life from social worker to artist to entrepreneur and all the living in between (Motherhood! Self-care! Home + Studio Tours! And more!) – plus art, offerings, and lots and lots of love.
If you’re new to my online world — or maybe an old friend, coming ’round to say hello again — above are a few categories to help you find your way.
Enjoy it all to the fullest. I’m so glad you’re here.
Goodbye, Instagram + Facebook
I've been on Instagram and Facebook for over a decade. There were years when I was super in love, especially with Instagram. Pretty photos and stories? YES, please! But for a long time now (years!), I've struggled with both platforms (despite healthy...

I’ve decided to retire 2 more courses. Last chance before they’re gone!
Hi friends, I've got some big news. I think it's really important every now and again to take a good look at what's taking up valuable space in our lives that perhaps isn't allowing for further growth and expansion. Is it time to let something go? Are we doing...
I opened a retail store!
I can't believe we made it, but we did! Birthing SoulShine + Co during a pandemic has been a story I'll remember forever. I have so much to say about it, but it's safe to say that creating beauty during a time of uncertainty has been an anchor for me in many...
Magnets are here!
Hello, magnets! These beauties are in stock and ready for fridges or just about anywhere a bit of inspiration is needed. Even better? They're all lovingly designed and made in the U.S.A. I'm loving how they turned out. Thank you again for all the...
Taking my time = cultivating Joy
I've been cultivating my joy lately by Taking My Time, which is such good soul learning (and unlearning) for me. Summer is here and it's a beautiful invitation to do what I'm always craving: slower everything, being present, practicing the art of living a full,...
Our home is on the cover of Oregon Home Mag!
Friends! Do you recognize this kitchen? So fun to have our home featured on the cover of Oregon Home Magazine as well as a lovely article written by Emily Grosvenor called "The Art Of Relocation" about why we left the city for small town Sisters, Oregon. So fun. We...
Happy Birthday, John!
John turned 46 years young last month. To celebrate, we snuggled into a little cabin along the gorgeous Metolius River. We ate, wandered along the river, listened to music (Bob Dylan mostly), watched movies (Have you seen the Beastie Boys documentary? So...
Embroidered patches? YES, they’re here!
I've decided to offer up embroidered patches and I'm crazy in love with how they've turned out. 100% embroidered. 1000% perfect for bags, jean jackets, and more. I'm putting mine on my overalls. Lovingly designed, created, and made in the US, too! Thank you for...
Hello + welcome!
Hey there, I’m Kelly Rae Roberts
Before I was an artist, I was a social worker. And then at the age of 30, I started playing with paint, and everything about my life changed. Today I’m passionate about making meaningful art while helping other women explore their creativity, nourish their souls, and build thriving creative businesses.
I live in a tiny town named Sisters, Oregon with my husband John, our son True, and our two English Bulldogs, Lulu Butter Butterbean and Amelia Apple Bottoms. I deeply believe that anything is possible, one small and brave step at a time.
