Today we're very happy to be able to share a conversation with two friends, Diana & Luc

Diana O'Riordan Verschoor, who also goes by Dee, is an eco folk artist living in the Colorado on Cheyenne, Ute, and Arapaho ancestral land. Dee's small business, Thimble and Stone, supports collective liberation through functional folk arts, placing an emphasis on ritual and wellness. One of Dee's artistic focuses is on painting simple, nature-inspired designs onto eco-cremation urns using natural pigments.

Luc Nadeau is an entrepreneur, artist, and freelance ecologist living in Longmont, Colorado. He started Nature's Casket in 2008 to provide eco-friendly caskets and urns.

In this conversation, Luc and Dee discuss their work in the field of eco-friendly caskets and urns. Luc is the founder of Nature's Casket, which provides eco-friendly burial options, while Dee is an artist who paints nature-inspired designs on eco-cremation urns. They talk about their personal experiences with death, the beauty of using beetle-kill wood for their creations, the challenges they face, and the joy they find in their work. They also discuss the importance of green burial options and the need for more awareness and support in this field.

Here is a link to Diane’s art gallery where you will find photos of the painted caskets and urns.
