Bio: Paula Moore is a Missouri award-winning watercolorist whose artistic journey has unfolded with purpose and passion. After retiring from a career in banking, she embraced art full-time and now teaches watercolor workshops locally and across the country. She is grateful to share life and world travel with her husband, Terry.
Although Paula loved creating from an early age, she was basically self-taught, learning through curiosity, perseverance, and the guidance of a few key mentors. Her breakthrough came with the realization that art functions like a spinning kaleidoscope—where elements such as line, color, value, shape, texture, and direction come into harmony when aligned with timeless design principles. This insight transformed both her artwork and her teaching.
In recent years, Paula sensed a deeper calling as the parallels between faith and art emerged naturally in her work. This led to the launch of her His Art teaching programs, women’s Gather & Create Bible studies, retreats, and mission-based opportunities.
Her first faith-based book blends art instruction with thoughtful essays, offering readers a fresh perspective on how creativity becomes an act of worship. Paula is an inspirational teacher and speaker and welcomes opportunities to share this message through her website: paulamooreart.com.

Bio: Hi, I’m Kim Galloway, best-selling author of over 20 books, and I help message-driven authors to FINALLY write their book so they can share their message, help the people they’re meant to help, and get more clients.
I’m a desert-residing, outdoors-loving, mom of four amazing kiddos. My husband, Ben, and I live in rural New Mexico with wild turkeys, a friendly herd of deer, dogs, and views for days!
My live-by-faith realization was that after working in my dad’s tax office for ten years — a job I couldn’t quit and where I couldn’t get fired — I was squandering my God-given gift of writing and storytelling. My gift is helping authors uncover their DEEPER message (going beyond the “should” book and into a life-changing experience) so that they can write the book that’s on their hearts, but also have fun doing it.
I have a string of best-selling books in my name AND I help authors just like you to write their books, publish them, and go on to have bestselling books as well.
