Have you ever gone up to a booth at an art market and thought to yourself, “I want one of everything?” That’s how I feel about Lauren Younis’ art. I first stumbled onto her Instagram in the early days of 2020 when I was teaching from home while caring for two young kids. My school had gone virtual and I was working on taking one of our bedrooms and turning into the semblance of an office since there was no clear end time for when schools would be back in session in-person.
I fell in love with a piece of art on Instagram and bought it for my office! It was my first local art purchase ever and became the background of many profile pictures for the next year.
You can only see the canvas a little in the background of this photo to the right! It’s in storage post-hurricane moving and craziness, but I’ll update this post when it’s back up in its rightful place on the wall.

I ran into Lauren at the Black Mountain Tailgate Market and bought a bunch of water bottle stickers recently. It was so fun to reconnect! You can check out her Etsy shop and follow at the social links below.
