This is a space for healing through art, reflection, and creativity. Each piece is made to spark calm, curiosity, and gentle transformation — small glimmers of light to remind us that beauty and hope are always within reach. Founded by artist and writer Christine Iversen, the studio blends storytelling, mindfulness, and color into soulful creations that nurture the spirit. Through art prints, coloring pages, and future collections, Light Haven invites you to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover your own creative light.
My Story
Turning Pain into Purpose
Hi, I'm Christine.
Light Haven Studio was born from my own search for light through the shadows of chronic illness. A few years ago, I was diagnosed with Chronic Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), and life as I knew it changed completely. My energy disappeared, pain became a constant, and so much of what once defined me had to fall away.
I’ve been a creator my whole life — drawing, painting, writing, singing — but through illness, my artistic practice deepened. It became my sanctuary: a form of meditation that connected me to beauty, even on the difficult days.
I've realized that creativity itself can be medicine — gentle, accessible, and deeply human. Light Haven Studio is my way of sharing this medicine with you.
Everything here is made to bring moments of peace and renewal — a small light in the dark, a moment of stillness, a reason to smile.
Whether you live with chronic illness or simply need space to breathe and reconnect, I hope you find comfort in my hand-drawn coloring pages, reflective words, and artful gifts to support the healing journey.
Thank you for being here and for believing in the quiet power of creativity. May this space be a gentle haven for you.
