Hello and welcome to Pieces of Nevada!
I'm Hillary, the creative force behind Pieces of Nevada. Throughout my life, my heart has always belonged to the arts. I hold degrees in both business and culinary arts, and I've continuously nurtured my passion for creativity through a lifetime of art classes, museum visits, and workshops. It is a long-cherished dream of mine to share that love of art with the world.
Raised under the dynamic skies of Northern Nevada, I have often found my inspiration in nature. The world is a daunting and often frightening place; I truly believe that art in its many forms can help us all to navigate our lives with a little less fear. We can create a space for ourselves, a haven away from the demands the world places on us, using art to decorate our homes and to inspire rejuvenation.
In a world that can be overwhelming, I invite you to explore the beauty and tranquility that art can bring to our lives. Join me on this artistic voyage as we discover the magic of creativity, one brushstroke and one stitch at a time.
Thank you for being a part of my creative journey here at Pieces of Nevada.
