Alice Brown: Creative Response: Senses
Meet Alice Brown…
she/her
Alice is a Glasgow-based illustrator, painter, and maker. With a bright illustrative style, her work is influenced by subjects such as mental health, self-care, and healing lessons derived from the natural world. Much of her practice is inspired by Nature, its mystical ways, and the things we can learn about our inner worlds by observing and understanding our surroundings.
We’re captivated by Alice’s ability to capture energy, movement, calm and reflection, through her whimsical wanderings on the page. We love the human x Nature element in her work — it seems to teleport us to familiar yet enchanted worlds — whilst inviting us to pause and tune in. We’re so happy that Alice was keen to respond creatively to ‘Senses’ — one of the five pathways to Nature connection.
Enjoy Alice’s artwork below… We hope you find her work as inspiring as we do. May it take you on a journey, inspire you to ignite the senses, and catapult you deeper into your own Nature connection journey.
“Connecting to nature has always given me a sense of calm. After the sudden loss of my mum, I found the forest to be an essential place of healing. I began to reconnect to my body by spending time in green spaces, aiding my recovery from grief.” – Alice Brown
Thank you Alice for sharing your wonderful creativity and perspective with the world, and for these particularly heartfelt reflections on connecting to Nature.
