I’m so glad you’re here! My name is Krista, and I’m an artist, author, photographer and grower of deliciousness on my Australian farm. I’m also a volunteer for Ukraine and a grateful survivor-thriver who believes in the power of stories, nature, and creativity to heal the darkest experiences of our lives.
