You found something special, here's the story behind it.
šØ Hi! Iām Brenda
Iām a BolivianāAmerican artist on a mission to paint tiny bursts of joy wherever people least expect it.
I create all kinds of art ā portraits, handāpainted Bibles, custom commissions ā and most recently, a 100+ hand-painted rock traveling art drop from Iowa to New York.
Every rock is painted, sealed, stickered, and carefully left where someone might need a smile ā at the airport, on a windowsill, along your daily walk.
Like you! š
š What makes this one different?
This rock is part of a growing collection I now call Prayer Rocks.
Each one is painted and prayed over before being placed ā created not just to brighten someoneās day, but to gently remind us of Godās beauty, peace, and presence in unexpected places.
If youāre holding this right now, my prayer is that it blesses you in some small way.
That it becomes a quiet nudge to pause, reflect, and pray ā for yourself, for someone you love, for anything on your heart.
Keep it as long as you need it.
And when the time feels right? Pass it on.
āØ Hereās what to do next:
šø Snap a pic
š² Share it & tag me @brendathompson.art
šŖØ Re-hide it somewhere new to bless someone else
š Or leave a prayer request here ā Iād love to pray for you

This project is just one artist (hi again! š) trying to bring beauty, wonder, and kindness into the world ā one hand-painted rock at a time.
Every rock takes time, care, and supplies ā and your support helps keep it going.
If this made you smile, you can:
ā Buy me a coffee to help cover paint, brushes, and sealing supplies
š² Follow me on social media to see where the rocks end up
ā¤ļø Share this project so others can join the fun
Together, weāre creating something joyful, meaningful, and a little magical ā one re-hidden rock at a time.
