I started Sunflowers and Lavender with my husband. I’m all things wardrobe, and he’s a painter/visual artist. We’re creatives who navigate the gig economy, enduring long hours in all conditions—rain or shine, extreme heat or frigid cold. Over time, the toll on our bodies and minds became undeniable. We realized we needed a sanctuary to reset, rejuvenate, and reconnect with nature—a need we didn’t fully understand until we surrendered to the call. We immediately noticed the benefits: increased productivity, eliminating brain fog, and a renewed space for creativity. As visual people, we also knew the importance of surrounding ourselves with beauty and inspiration. Our sanctuary became a space where we could heal without sacrificing visual inspiration—a place that nurtures the body, mind, and creative spirit. We wanted to share this experience with others who, like us, need to recharge, reflect, and rediscover their passion or reconnect with themselves through the healing power of nature and art.
