Words and Wildflowers Creative Prompts – Issue 83

We LOVE research and learning as a way to get inspired and boost ideas and creativity!! So, Kenzie and I are going to be sharing the inspiration that we collect here in our second newsletter…. once a week!!!

Here’s how it works:

We provide the inspiration. You interpret it however you wish… any medium, any size. It is meant to inspire lettering and floral art combined together. But, you can:

Just do the florals, just do the lettering, or combine them together.
Use the provided quote for your piece or select your own.
Use colors from one of the inspiration images or select your own favorites
Create the floral art… as a still life in a vase, a single flower, a border, a pattern, a bouquet

Hope you will create with us and post your work at #wordsandwildflowers2026 and tag @lorisiebert.studio and @snippetsofwhimsy

Quote of the week…

Inspirational artist of the week: Nadia Yaron

Nadia Yaron is a Brazilian-born American artist of Russian and Italian descent. She lives and works in upstate New York where she sculpts with wood, stone, and metal to reflect themes of fragility, impermanence, and oneness with nature, often informed by her idyllic rural surroundings. Yaron demonstrates impermanence by honoring small transient events such as a fallen leaf, a gust of wind, a flower blooming, or a pink cloud.

Yaron creates vertical structures that represent the lay of the land as she sees it. Grass, cornfields, trees, mountains, and moon are abstract documentations. She assembles wood and stone to create a magnified slightly anthropomorphic portrait of a flower depicting the sacredness and uniqueness of every flower and furthermore every being.

Yaron honors the beauty of the universe by embracing the perfection and inherent truth of its natural materials. She works in collaboration with nature. Her wood is intentionally and locally sourced and as a way of giving back, every year she plants native hardwood trees.
