Rekindling the spirit of the maker & wild one

Receive notes on exploring the creative depths, the natural cycles of life, and our primal human ways

Seeking deeper meaning, deeper magic in the lost ways

of being a human, a maker, and our true self

Artwork for Wild Women

Through my art, I reach deep into the places we’ve buried our raw & true nature, digging up the beauty that lies in dark places, and unearthing the potential in our wild side.

I draw from nature’s signs and symbols to connect to our untamed side that runs within our inner landscape, seeking long lost meaning and magic.

My process involves reflection on the inner journey as wild maker and exploration of natural processes and materials, engaging in the full process as creator.

Art helps me feel deeply and live freely. May it impart in you the same.

Welcome to The House of Lost Arts

The House of Lost Arts was born out of my reclamation of art as my sacred work, as well as my love of traditional wisdom and skills that have been lost to modernity. I believe that we are all makers at heart – working with our hands is rooted in our nature and history as humans. Here, we invite meaning and magic back into our lives by reclaiming our lost arts & wild dreams, choosing making & creating as a means of self-expression & self-reliance, remembering the ways of the humans who came before us, connecting more deeply with nature & the cycles of life, and getting back in touch with our wild self & true nature.

Hello, I’m Brooke

Raised in rural Wyoming, I have a deep love of wild and expansive lands, where wildlife and cattle roam free rather than the sprawl of corporate stores. I always sought a feeling of freedom in my work, with my dream of being an artist as old as my first memory. The civilized path came for me, like it does for us all, and I found myself lost for a time. My call to create never left though, as I danced in the kitchen, cooking from scratch and making sourdough bread while I dreamt of the freedom of creative work, living off the land, and homeschooling. In time, I came to know these in various forms – dreams and visions that continue to grow and evolve. The common threads that continue to run through me are a need to make, expression of my true nature, a love of the natural world, and looking to the ways before modernity.

Unearthing Who We Are Beneath Modernity

While the world seeks to move us along at a mindless pace, we get to come back to our roots – being who we are, making what we want to make, connecting with nature, and remembering more meaningful ways of being a human. We get to reclaim who we really are and create our own way in the world – outside the expectations that come with living in the modern world.

    Let your goals wilt away so you can follow the path that makes you come alive

    Our weather has been the typical cool spring we’re used to in the mountain west. Our winter was challenging, as it usually is in Wyoming, but we accumulated more snow than usual this year. We went from one extreme to the other as it quickly turned warm and melted away. Last spring, we had a…

    Leaving social media, choosing creative freedom

    We live in an interesting world. One where we have the freedom to create what we want to create and offer our unique work to many using the Internet. Yet, in a way, this way of creating our work in the world feels less free. We give up much of our time creating to create…
