"I'm deeply inspired by the beauty of nature and the outdoors. My piece "Her Flowers" reflects themes of growth and reflection, blending earthy tones and organic shapes to evoke a sense of calm and connection. Through my work, I hope to invite others to pause, breathe, and embrace the stillness found in the natural world—because so much healing can be done when we allow ourselves to tap into nature." -Cortney Herron
