Kendall Hurley
My name is Kendall Hurley and I am an embroidery artist originally from Anchorage, Alaska. I have been working with this medium for over six years now and am very passionate about keeping needlework and textile art alive. Embroidery has been around since humans began sewing, some of the earliest examples come from civilizations in ancient Egypt and China. In a world inundated by a have-it-now mentality, taking the time to sit down and craft with my hands is a practice I find both meditative and exciting. Playing with color and texture has long been my goal, and recently I’ve begun incorporating beadwork into my pieces. There are many things to love about embroidery, but my favorite is that nothing is ever the same, each piece is unique, much like people. Much of my inspiration comes from the natural world, which I credit to growing up in such a beautiful place. As an avid reader, I also enjoy adding a touch of whimsy to my work. You can often find me after work curled up on my couch, needle in hand, listening to whatever movie my partner put on, happily stitching away.

Vibha Nayyar
My name is Vibha. I am a self-taught visual artist. Making art has helped me process experiences, deal with grief, and improve mental well-being through creative processes. I’m driven by the intention to heal while creating vibrant, one-of-a-kind art pieces that capture the beauty of the natural world. I’ve experimented with a range of styles, techniques and media, from abstract, landscapes and still life in watercolor and acrylic paintings to mixed media collages and beaded jewelry. My art is not just a creative outlet, but also a source of personal growth and healing. I’m happy to share my work with others and inspire them with the same joy and wonder that art brings me. I’m constantly learning, experimenting, and pushing the boundaries of my creativity, and I’m excited to see where this journey takes me.

Jan Marie Auten
I am an acrylic painter that sometimes does oil pastels. I have a great response to my pastels but they take a long time to do so I prefer acrylics which I spend time trying to look like oil paint. I do all subjects. I recreate creation as I don’t think I can improve on what the Creator created for us to enjoy. I paint what makes me see joy and beauty as we need more of that always. Art is a way to express our emotions as is writing. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed painting them.
