Hi, I'm Lauren!
Hello, there! I'm Lauren Smith, founder of Flourish + Fern, a proudly a 100% woman-owned Connecticut small art business born of a love of creating and spreading joy through art.
Fueled primarily by 90's nostalgia, plant-life, espresso, adventure, and song, my work is centered around capturing moments, big or small.
Browse our line of illustrated prints, cards, and stickers to beautify your space, gift to a loved one, or check out what's on the calendar for our upcoming art workshops and join in the making!
Life is art. Create daily. Spread joy. 🌿

Home Studio Vibes: Behind the Scenes
When you're a full time artist, what *would* be your dining room usually looks like!
Snapped this shot of my home studio in full swing getting ready for Flourish + Fern's first wholesale trade show in Atlanta, July 2024.
It's the little things, right? Like being super excited about this new vertical greeting card spinner stand, when the displays get a glow up.
