Laura Horn: Embracing Creativity Through Art and Connection

Laura Horn is an Australian mixed media artist whose work is inspired by the imperfect and ever-changing beauty of nature. Her creative journey began when she traded the fluorescent lights of an office cubicle for the freedom of a paintbrush—a moment that sparked a passion she now shares with others. Today, her sunlit studio, where she paints alongside her furry companions, reflects the heart-centered approach that defines both her art and her life.

Blending playfulness with mindfulness, Laura’s artistic process begins with fluid washes of watercolor and ink. She then layers shapes, patterns, and botanical motifs using pens, pencils, and pastels, creating artworks that evoke both serenity and wonder. Her organic compositions capture nature’s essence, celebrating its imperfections and fleeting beauty.

Beyond her own artwork, Laura is passionate about helping others discover their creative potential. Through her online classes, retreats, and weekly podcast, she empowers artists to embrace their creativity and find fulfillment in their artistic journeys. Her teaching style emphasizes connection, self-expression, and the joy of creating without pressure or perfectionism.

When she’s not painting or dreaming up new ideas, Laura can often be found tending to her garden or curling up with a good book—simple pleasures that continue to inspire her work and fuel her passion for living a creative, meaningful life.
