Karina Stephens

Welcome to Casa de la Cascada — my sandstone house in the rainforest.

I’m Karina Stephens, an Australian mixed-media artist, and this channel is a place where I share the creative world behind my work. From my home and studio in Buderim, Queensland, I create original artworks inspired by texture, nature, story, and the quiet beauty of place.

Here, I invite you behind the scenes of my art practice, into the studio, around the home and garden, and into the slower, more meaningful rhythms of life that shape what I create. You’ll find studio stories, new collections, creative rituals, and glimpses of everyday life in the rainforest — all woven together with a love of beauty, atmosphere, and intentional living.

My hope is that this channel feels like a gentle exhale — a place of inspiration, creativity, and calm.

I’m so glad you’ve found your way here.
