Meet The Team

Saramanda Zurbuch

Hi, I'm Saramanda. I love working with children and am happiest when creating, so it is a dream come true to open Wren's Nest. My background is in child development and psychology, and I am an abstract artist who loves creating large-scale paintings. I believe we are all artists. I hope to see you in the studio! www.saramandaz.com

Irene Joyce

I am an experience-based, multimedia artist. I used to dance full time. My explorations have bridged being a professional ballerina to set design, choreography, costuming, painting, real-time sketches, pottery, textile art, edible confections... the list goes on & on..., as I imagine yours does.

Now, I am just a super curious human.

I love the idea of working with other people who want to speak their own languages and find a groove in their creative expression.

Let's do that within our community!

Brittney Leigh Ann

Hi, I’m Britt! Mom to two amazing kids (and a hamster), a professional mess maker, and the creative heart behind my art journeys at Messy Maker Club & Atelier Brittney Leigh Ann. In our home, art is a way of life—you’ll find materials and projects scattered across just about every surface! I’m all about the magic of creating—where the fun is in the process, not just the final piece. So excited to hop into creativity together and make a GOOD mess!

Devon Cierra

Hi! I'm Devon. The love of creating art has been lifelong. I aspire to make more and more time to create art as I move through life. Creating art is a way to come back home to myself. I’ve worked with many different mediums (hard to just stick to one as an artist)! Connecting with others while creating art is one of my favorite things to do and I'm excited to partake in this wonderful space with you all.
