Raised in Arizona, the beautiful Sonoran Desert is where Erynn Knowles found her inspiration for nature and art.  She gets many of her creative ideas from hiking the desert trails and photographing the plants and landscapes.

Erynn has been very inspired by the dramatic desert floras of her native Southwest. Her newest series includes colorful botanical paintings of cactus and other beautiful native plants from all over the world. Erynn hopes her paintings of botanicals, desert blooms and bouquets of flowers inspire others to appreciate the nature and our environment.

After a career in Graphic Design, Erynn earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Utah in 2015.  She is now happy to call Las Vegas, Nevada home with her husband and Yorkies. She now works full time on her oil painting and whenever possible explores the Mojave & Sonoran deserts, rivers and mountains.  They often travel to Arizona, California and all over the Southwest looking for new inspiration for Erynn’s work.
