Harvesting site-specific soils and plant materials from across Texas and beyond, she creates her own pigments—using the land as both medium and muse. Through this tactile, elemental approach, she fosters a deeper, more intimate connection between the viewer and the land, inviting a quiet but visceral relationship with the natural world.

This one-of-a-kind painting on paper is created with watercolor. It is 22 inches high and 30 inches wide. This artwork is not framed and requires framing to be properly displayed.

Raised in the rural landscapes near the Rocky Mountains, Lowell brings a rich personal history to her artmaking, one that reflects her deep engagement with nature, literature, and sound. As an autodidact with a background in both classical and intuitive painting, she strikes a balance between structure and spontaneity. Each piece begins with a considered plan, yet within that framework, she leaves space for intuition to guide the process. This duality mirrors the natural world—where systems of order coexist with moments of chaos—and allows her work to evolve organically while retaining an underlying sense of coherence.

Lowell’s studio practice is shaped by contemplative ritual. An avid reader, she draws steady inspiration from literature, alongside her ongoing studies in biology, gardening, and music. Her paintings often hold penciled notations—fragments of text or melody—layered into the surface like quiet echoes. These details, subtle yet intentional, lend her work a narrative richness that rewards close looking.

Her work has been exhibited at institutions including the Yellowstone Art Museum and the Old West Museum. Among her many accomplishments, she takes particular pride in her watercolor illustrations created for the University of Texas, which were selected as cover art by the Journal of BioPhysics. Lowell’s practice honors the serene and the unruly, the structured and the spontaneous—offering a meditative space where the complexities of the natural world reflect those within ourselves. See less
