Welcome!

My name is Leah Wolk-Derksen. Welcome to Tiny Pebble Designs where you can find nature art for all occasions. All of my pieces are hand-painted using watercolor on paper. From there I sell both originals and prints of my originals, known as glicee prints. Scroll down to discover more about me, the artist, upcoming art fairs and markets, and custom art options. 

  • Artist's Statement

    My work is inspired by my time as an elementary school teacher as well as by my love of nature. Closely observing an insect, a cluster of ripening berries, or the way our landscape changes with the seasons allows me to feel present and joyful. My hope is that my art helps you feel these things too, and that it brings you a greater appreciation of the natural world.
