Lauren Connolly
Lauren Connolly is a wildlife artist, nature journaling educator, and founder of Wild Developments Studio. With a background in marine biology and field experience ranging from shark research to conservation work, her art is rooted in a deep connection to the natural world. Working primarily in watercolour, Lauren is drawn to the way the medium mirrors nature itself, fluid, layered, and alive. Through her art, teaching, and podcast Wildly Unplug, she encourages others to slow down, step outside, and reconnect with nature through creativity. Her work blends observation with storytelling, inviting viewers to not only see wildlife—but to feel connected to it.
