Artist and creative guide Abby is dedicated to nurturing HEART-CENTERED creatives, empowering them to embrace a confident and abundant art practice.
Guided by a nature-inspired philosophy that honours her creativity using the natural ebb and flow of the moon phases, Abby believes that art is a transformative journey, not just a destination.
Her artistic journey spanning 25 years is a testament to the healing power of creativity. Overcoming challenges and finding solace in her East Coast England home, her mid-life exploration underscores the profound impact of art.
Abby shares her insights about her current work, born from a re-evaluation of how we live, heal, and grow, her profound affinity for nature and how art can illuminate the path to healing and renewal.
We would like to thank Abby Monroe for sharing their time, artwork and knowledge with us.

Thank you Abbey. You have opened a door which has been closed for many years . I am in Lerth Western Australia and one point is that I will be looking at the Moon in a different light. Thank you so much, and I live by the Swan river and wetlands. Thank you again.

So, so grateful for this Feature Artist interview! Listening to Abby talk about her journey as an artist, how she holds sacred space for creating, and that she has released herself from the pressure to sell/market/social media her way to "success" was absolutely freeing for me. Abby helped unlock me from self imposed pressures. I have permission to create art - just create and now worry or stress about having it seen...that my art is enough. Thank you, Abby for guiding me back to the sacred space of expression and process.

[@sandramoore5632]

Loved this interview and the art you create....our life path influences everything we make and clearly inspired you to produce pieces that transmits your thoughts and emotions.

[@shareesayers3572]

❤ Tears in my eyes at the end. About to turn 60 and struggling to find my direction this interview has given me a lot to think about. An inspiring conversation to listen to.

[@FibreArtsTakeTwo]

Thank you so much for watching. xx

[@jillmundy4121]

Such a wonderful conversation between you. I did a textile degree in my 40s but it is only now in my 60s, with reduced work commitments, that I am finding the confidence to learn more through play and experimentation. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

[@gonerustic]

I always ‘go with the flow’ in my work and make from my heart - thank you for expanding on that, especially to be in tune with our cycles and connecting more to the natural world 💕😊

I absolutely loved this interview. So apt for me at the present time. I have left my corporate life in Healthcare after 40 years to follow my life long dream at age 65 to work with textiles, paper, stitching, art forms and mixed media especially incorporating nature. Abby you are an inspiration and I love your intention and ethos. As you say you are never too old to learn which makes me comfortable that I am truly living in my skin as I am meant to be. Blessings to you, with love and grace, Sandi 💖🌸💖🌿💖 PS I too have a 1960 vintage caravan name Miss Nellie (named after my Nan in the UK) whom I love dearly 🙏🏻 from the beautiful South Coast, NSW, Australia 🌝🌈🌝🌊🌝
