Mariah Cottrell is a fine artist and surface pattern designer based in the serene mountains of Wyoming, where nature serves as her greatest inspiration. A graduate of BYU with a BA in Studio Art, she began her creative journey as an oil painter, capturing vivid yet tranquil landscapes inspired by her surroundings. Her passion for art evolved when she discovered surface design, blending her love for fine art with functional, everyday spaces.
Mariah’s designs are a reflection of her appreciation for peace and quiet moments, brought to life through soft color palettes and organic patterns. Influenced by her outdoor adventures—whether hiking, gardening, or rafting with her family—her work evokes harmony and connection to nature, making each piece feel both intentional and calming.
