The Art of Conservation

Art for Conservation

As an ecologist, conservationist, and avid outdoor recreator with a profound love for the natural world, I am committed to supporting charitable conservation organizations by donating 10% from every sale.

These organizations hold the same values and beliefs that drive my art practice and are so important to me: caring for our wild places, conserving natural resources, and educating and empowering others about the natural world.

When you purchase from Sage Leaf Studio, you are supporting this shared mission.

Sustainable Art, Made with Intention

At Sage Leaf Studio, I'm committed to creating joyful, ecofriendly art while minimizing my impact on the planet and your home. I'm not perfect, but I'm always learning, improving, and pushing vendors to offer better, cleaner, more sustainable options.

Here’s how I reduce my art footprint:

Originals: I use paints, papers, and brushes that are eco- and home-friendly.
Prints & Canvases: Archival-quality FSC-certified papers, recycled canvases, and water-based inks.
Shipping: Print-on-demand centers worldwide reduce transport emissions; packaging is sustainable and recycled where possible.
Daily Practices: I safely dispose of paint waste, recycle old artwork, buy reused supplies, and even drive electric to reach inspiring places.

Every purchase supports art that’s better for your home and our Earth.

Raising Awareness Through Art

At Sage Leaf Studio, we believe art should inspire change as well as beauty. Creating art can be harmful on the planet and your home, but we’re working to do better, and to show other artists how they can too.

From the minerals mined for paints to solvents, chemicals in papers, and excess studio waste, the impact is real. But small changes every day add up. By rethinking materials, reducing chemicals and waste, and choosing sustainable practices, we can shrink our footprint and protect our homes and planet.

Our goal is simple: set an example and encourage others in the art community to join us in doing a little better for our planet.
