Florbela Nienaber in her studio

hi friend,

I'm Florbela—an artist, teacher, and encourager of hearts.

Through art, story, and teaching, I help women and families grow in faith, creativity, and purpose. My hope is that what we create together will point little hearts (and grown ones too!) to the wonder of our Creator.

xo, Florbela
