As a young transplant from the West Coast to a small, conservative southern town, the only place Halli Bourne felt at home was in the lively forest stretching over her parents' land. The cool sturdiness of their bark supported hours of musing, sensing, and later, knowing. Making art arose both from a pervasive loneliness, even as the youngest of seven children, and her deep affection for the calm and beauty the trees provided.

Bourne is a professional artist specializing in watercolor, oil and sketching, is a certified art teacher with a Masters in Illustration, and owner of True Self Coaching, LLC, a green arts organization intended to reconnect people with their creative birthright.
