The Art of Being Amazing: Linda Finstad’s Playful Approach to Creativity

What if being amazing was something you could learn? Meet Linda Finstad—an artist, author, and creativity cheerleader who proves that art and life shine brightest with fun, curiosity, and a touch of mischief.

From Coffee to Canvas: A Creative Rebel’s Journey

Linda’s artistic journey is anything but conventional. Known for her coffee art portraits, equine masterpieces, and whimsical take on life, she has built a career by embracing bold ideas and playful expression. Her philosophy is simple: creativity thrives in an environment of play, exploration, and confidence.

She turns everyday objects into art, encourages fearless self-expression, and invites others to experience the joy of creating without hesitation. Whether she’s using coffee as paint or guiding others to reignite their creative spark, her work is filled with energy and inspiration.

Why Play Unlocks Creativity

Ever feel like inspiration is out of reach? Linda believes creativity lives in everyone, and play is the key to unlocking it. In her blog How the Power of Play Boosts Creativity, she explores how embracing curiosity leads to breakthroughs in art, business, and everyday life.

Want to experiment with your creative side? Grab a brush, a coffee cup, or anything that sparks joy, and start creating.

New Release: Being Amazing is an Art Form

Linda’s latest book, Being Amazing is an Art Form, shares practical steps to reclaim confidence, creativity, and a vibrant outlook on life. Success, fulfillment, and self-expression are not reserved for the lucky few. This book proves that every person has the potential for an extraordinary life.

We just had our wedding at A Bear and Bison Inn and it was wonderful. Brooke was on-site every day to make sure things went smoothly. She coordinated the entire experience and thought of details I had missed that could make our wedding even more magical.

The hot tub was a highlight of the stay and SO relaxing at the end of a long day.

The rooms were cute with a rustic feel, and waking up to see a view of the mountains each morning was a treat.

Breakfasts and dinner were DELICIOUS. Truly some of the best food I have ever had.

Gigantic shout out to Annette, who did our breakfast services in the main dining area each morning. Annette, you were the best customer service experience I have had in quite some time (possibly ever). Annette had keen attention to detail and could remember who in my party liked decaf coffee or tea, who enjoyed juice the most (and would set out extras for them), and greeted my children with the warmest smile every morning. She made me feel SO at ease as my wild toddlers would play and sing (and sometimes cry) at the tables. She brought their food out early to keep them entertained and always kept an eye out for them as if they were her own. Annette made us feel so taken care of with the best combination of warmth and professionalism. Thank you, Annette!
