Erica Nordling has always been passionate about art, drawing inspiration from her deep love of nature. Through her paintings, she seeks to invite viewers into her world, sharing the beauty and serenity she finds in the natural landscape. Her artistic journey began with painting trees and flowers on the walls of her first home, which soon led to requests from friends to create murals for children’s rooms. This passion evolved into her first business, Break-Away, specializing in murals and decorative painting.

Erica’s love for both art and teaching led her to open Lynnie’s Nest, a studio where she offers step-by-step painting classes, helping others find joy in creating. Over time, Lynnie’s Nest expanded into a floral and art studio, offering fresh flower arrangements, home goods, and art workshops—allowing Erica to work daily with both flowers and paint, blending her artistic and botanical passions.

Dedicated to continuous growth, Erica pursued her education at Seward County Community College and Fort Hays State University, where she took several art courses to refine her skills and expand her artistic vision.
