F3 Ranch Alberta We are a sanctuary for horses and other farm animals that need a soft landing. Welcome to our journey! Yours Truly

Opening October 2022, F3 Ranch is a family-owned and operated equine sanctuary, located 45 minutes east of Fort Saskatchewan in Lamont County. The ranch started with a vision of a relaxed multi-discipline facility and has become a safe haven for rescued and misunderstood horses. Our mission has been to rescue and rehabilitate as many horses as our resources allow. Working with Horse Hero’s Alberta, we help to pull horses from local auctions who are destined for the slaughterhouse and offer them a forever sanctuary or second chance training for rehoming if possible. We encourage people to come to spend some time with these amazing animals and hopefully find some healing of their own. We strongly believe in the 3 F's; Faith, Family, and Friends. So, whether you are volunteering, visiting the horses, attending an event, or an artist looking for inspiration, you are part of the F3 Family!
​
So let Matthew and I be the first to welcome you to F3 Ranch!

✏️🐾 A New Face Is Coming to Life! 🐶❤️

There’s nothing quite like starting a fresh drawing and watching a personality slowly emerge from a blank piece of paper!

I’ve started working on my next pet portrait, and those beautiful, expressive eyes were the first thing I wanted to capture. ❤️ Of course, I couldn’t resist getting that adorable nose done too!

There’s still a LOT of pencil work ahead of me, especially with all that gorgeous fur, but I’m already loving how this one is coming together.

Every portrait is a little adventure, and my favourite part is watching the animal slowly come to life with each layer of shading. 🥰

Stay tuned as I continue bringing this beautiful face to life, one pencil stroke at a time!

What do you think so far? ❤️🐾

🧙‍♂️✨ A Little Halloween Magic with Revy! 🐾🎃

Abracadabra! Meet Wizard Revy! 🪄⭐🌙

I had so much fun creating this adorable little 5x7 pencil drawing of Revy in his wizard costume! It took me just 2 hours to bring this magical little fellow to life, and I think I’ve found a fun way to spread some Halloween magic! ❤️

✏️❤️ IT’S FINISHED!! And I am SO proud of this one! 🐾❤️

After 16 hours, countless tiny pencil strokes, and a whole lot of patience, this beautiful face is finally complete! 🥹

This is an 8x10 original graphite pencil drawing, created entirely by hand, and I have to say, I’m genuinely so incredibly proud of how it turned out!

From the sparkle in those eyes to that big, happy smile and every little strand of fur, I poured so much time and love into bringing this sweet face to life. ❤️

As an artist, I think we can sometimes be our own harshest critics. We’re always looking for the little things we could have done better. But every once in a while, a piece comes along that makes you sit back, look at what you’ve created, and think, “Wow, I actually did that!” 🥰

This is one of those pieces for me.

And considering the challenges I’ve faced with my health and my hands over the past few years, being able to create something like this means more to me than I can possibly explain. ❤️

I’m learning that it’s okay to be proud of myself and how far I’ve come.

Thank you to everyone who followed along with the progress of this portrait and encouraged me along the way. Your kindness and support mean the world to me!

So, what do you think of the finished piece? I’d absolutely love to hear your thoughts! 🐶❤️

Made some really good progress on this piece while working at the cafe today, and I’m so happy with how it’s coming along so far. ☕✏️🐾

I managed to get a lot more detail and shading done in the face, and it’s always exciting when the personality really starts to show through. Those eyes are coming to life, and I’m loving how this sweet face is turning out.

There’s still more to do, but this is how far I got today while drawing at the cafe. Hopefully I can finish it at home tonight. ❤️

What do you think so far?

❤️👣🌧️ DAY 30: RAIN OR SHINE, WE’RE STILL GOING! 🎉❤️

THIRTY DAYS!!! Can you believe it?! And apparently Mother Nature decided the appropriate way to celebrate this milestone was to dump a bunch of rain on me. Thanks, lady! 😂🌧️

But guess what? I’m going for my walk anyway!

Thirty days ago, I started this challenge during one of the most uncertain and difficult periods of my life. I was struggling with my health, depression, isolation, and the very real possibility of losing my home and farm. I needed something to motivate me to get outside, something that was just for me, and maybe a little reminder that I was still capable of moving forward.

What started as a silly little challenge to walk one step for every new follower has turned into something I never really expected. ❤️

Somewhere along the way, I stopped needing a reason to go for a walk and started actually looking forward to them. I’ve learned to listen to my body, give myself grace on the difficult days, appreciate the little things, and find moments of happiness even when life feels completely overwhelming.

Have I walked every single day? Nope! 😂 Have there been days when I could barely manage a few steps? Absolutely. Have I figured out how to solve all my problems? Not even close!

But I’m still here. I’m still trying. And I’m still moving forward.

And perhaps the biggest lesson of these past thirty days is that progress doesn’t have to be perfect to be meaningful.

I also want to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who’s been following along, cheering me on, sharing your own struggles, and reminding me that I’m not walking this road alone. You’ve helped turn something that started out of desperation into something that genuinely brings me joy. ❤️

So here’s to thirty days of small steps, big feelings, questionable weather, and a whole lot of hope!

DAY 30! A little rain isn’t going to wash away how far I’ve come! ❤️👣🌧️

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have a date with a raincoat, some muddy boots, and probably a very unimpressed dog or two. 😂🐾

Who’s still walking with me? ❤️
