Artists featured:

Natalya is a yogi & artist inspired by softness & vulnerability in her practices. Her work often centers around the shadow self, exploring femininity, mental health, and rediscovering joy. Her creativity is guided by her personal experience and connection with the world, navigating the balance between joy and pain -- essential qualities to creating a beautiful life.

She received her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training certification with Rainbow Body Yoga, 200-hour Meditation Teacher Training with Three Jewels, and her Yin training with Daya Yoga. She currently creates through visual art & music but has a background in theatre & poetry during her time at SUNY New Paltz.

She is grateful to be continuously learning from her teachers and students.

Abby Rhodes:

Abby is a holistic artist interested in individual and community healing through visual art and mindfulness practices. Her paintings and prints explore the concept of embodiment through figurative abstraction. With this concept in mind she uses the creative process to mediate the introspective awareness and physical experience of being a body.

After 6 years as a freelance painter and muralist in Brooklyn NY, Abby started her healing journey, becoming a yoga instructor while expanding her artistic practice into the wellness sphere with creations such as custom printed yoga mats and journals. Abby received her BFA in Drawing from Pratt Institute and her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training certification with Dou Yoga in Brooklyn. Her mission is to bring creative communities together to heal and inspire one another.

She is currently studying color and what it means to have a creative voice. When she’s not drawing, she’s reading a good book and can be seen hanging out with a cat on her shoulder.
