Aletia Thomas of Art by Aletia is an Equine fine artist, pet portrait artist and interior design coach with an online course. It is important for her to spend as much time away from the canvas in nature as it is painting. Horses are part of nature and can be a vital link to nature for equestrians and animal lovers.
Aletia also believes having nature reflected in our homes is important for our wellbeing.

In this episode Aletia and I chat about the teachings of horses as inspiration for her art, pet portraits, interior design to bring nature indoors, and the science behind the ways nature helps mental health.

About Your Host:

↟ Mandee Nicole, founder of Inner Light Botanicals and Just Earthly Podcast host, gathers earth- and energy- conscious community and hosts online workshops, in-person outdoor adventure retreats and trainings in nature that always have a deep focus on building conscious community, creating a safe space, and a foundation for going deeper in personal practice with hands-on practices to embody the work.

Mandee is also a Creative Rituals Facilitator, Writer, + Process Artist that paints with nature's cycles and helps you accept where you are in life. Stuck in limbo? the unknown? uncertainty? the void? She believes it’s all about trusting the process and journey, rather than the product, outcome or destination through connecting with nature's cycles. Mandee helps you connect your inner and outer landscapes through your unique expressions of writing and painting and hosts events online and in-person.

She shares her writing through gentle mornings☁️, a weekly Sunday morning newsletter with essays on feels, reflections & writings for a slow, simple + cozy life inspired by nature.
