Rory Linn Artist - Creating Modern Botanical Art Prints for Elevated and Eclectic Home Style

ABOUT

HI, I’M RORY

I’M A CARVING ARTIST BASED IN NEW ORLEANS. INSPIRED BY ORGANIC LINES AND GEOMETRIC SHAPES FOUND IN MY NATURAL ENVIRONMENT, I CREATE ORIGINAL CARVED PAINTINGS AND BLOCK PRINTS TO BRING BEAUTIFUL, MODERN ART INTO YOUR HOME.

— A LITTLE BACK STORY

For eight years I built brands and websites for amazing female run businesses that worked alongside Oprah and Martha Stewart, and were featured in Style Me Pretty, Huff Post, Real Simple, and more. But I knew I had a greater purpose.

In 2019 I returned to my true passion, art. I started with sketching and creating original block prints. But I wanted more! More depth, more dimension, more layers!

In 2021 I found paint carving. Using traditional printmaking methods, I build thick acrylic paint onto panels, layer by layer, then carve away, revealing a depth and dimensionality that moves with the light and creates shadows in the passing day.

a place to center myself and quiet my brain. “
