Meet Nebulosa
My name is McKenzie Delaney, and the world knows me mostly as Nebulosa.
I am an interdisciplinary artist, botanist, designer, and cat mom who grew up in the foothills of Northwest Georgia. Having been raised by a dad whose green thumb precedes him, I have always been taught to revere the beauty of nature by being its steward rather than its dictator. My latchkey kid years were spent running barefoot in the woods, writing prose under lush magnolia trees, and searching for fae between the cracks of moss covered boulders. The color green runs through my veins, and I feel incredibly grateful to have created a life where I can share my connection to botanicals with the world around me.
Having lived quite the cosmopolitan life away from my upbringing in the Appalachian forests, I’ve always followed the dirt paths that wind their way back to my organic roots. Rather than letting my love of city life and my quest for natural connection compete for real estate, I fight to bring the opposing worlds together in harmony for myself as well as those who love my art.
Now a global citizen with a design studio and rooftop garden in Brooklyn, New York, I devote my life to celebrating the beauty of nature in places where it can so easily be forgotten.
I advocate for the beauty that can be found in unexpected places, and I encourage my clients to view the world through this lens. I strongly believe that the bridge between the unknown and connection is curiosity-- I know I’ve accomplished something worthwhile when my client points to a botanical in my work and asks, “What on earth is that?!” By fostering a sense of wonder through my artistry, I strive to create a spirit of engagement with the beauty of nature long after a project has finished.
I’m deeply inspired by the uncurated and the curious. My love of weeds stands as proudly as the wild fennel found on the roadsides of California, or the sprawling tomatillos that creep their way into the open-air kitchens of Mexico. I’m constantly seeking inspiration from color palettes I discover throughout my daily life, and I believe that there is never a shortage of inspiration as long as my eyes are peeled to the depth all around me.
It’s my absolute honor to bring my passion of floral design to your special endeavor. Now let’s get growing!
