Inspirational artist of the week: Conner Nesbit
Conner Nesbit is an acclaimed floral designer best known for winning HBO Max’s floral design competition series Full Bloom, taking home the $100,000 grand prize by creating innovative, storytelling-driven floral work that impressed the judges.
He first fell into the world of floristry around 2010 at age 18 when he took a job delivering flowers out of financial necessity after high school and quickly became obsessed with the craft, learning names, techniques, and floral design along the way.
Conner’s journey hasn’t been without challenges: in 2014 he was diagnosed with testicular cancer and shortly afterward lost his mother to ovarian cancer. These experiences deepened his connection to the symbolic nature of flowers and influence his aesthetic, which often explores contrasts and emotional nuance.

“We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.”
— Maya Angelou
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.
