Natalie is an artist from North Carolina and graduated from The School of Visual Arts in New York City in 2011. Her 16 years in NYC were filled with many forms of creative collaborations – which is how she met her Montanan husband. In 2021, they moved to Great Falls to be closer to family. They explore Montana together, photographing wildlife and collecting skulls for Natalie’s art series Skulls & Souls. This series was started in 2018 and primarily uses the medium of Pyrography (wood-burning).
The key principles of Pyrography are very similar to pen & ink with the additional consideration of wood hardness, temperature, time, and patience.
This medium has brought so much peace, joy, and curiosity to Natalie’s life; which is something that she loves to share.
