I do believe in an everyday sort of magic — the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we’re alone.
― Charles de Lint
This Season we are exploring Connections! Everyone of us is related in some way, through our humanity, blood, interests, care, friendship, art… We will be digging deep into the connects we have, how we make them and their effects. It is believed that one stone thrown into a pond can create ripples that will effect everything in the world. What ripples are you making and what are their effects? Come explore your connection to your art, to your people and to your world with us this season.
Meet this season’s guest artist
Brandi Kincaid is an illustrator and paper crafter who makes and records memories with her husband in Bellingham, Washington, a far cry from her home state of Georgia. She spends all her free moments playing with paper and glue, and drawing a version of the world around her. When she isn’t making a mess or dreaming up new designs, she’s spending time at one of her favorite neighborhood bookshops or watching episodes of Murder She Wrote, because nothing beats J.B. Fletcher.
