Book Cover: Kelp Bulbs

The art of the sea, tangles of kelp washed ashore in a windstorm. The hold fasts becoming squiggles and the stems, compositional elements.

Nancy Canyon, MFA

I've been making art since childhood. Then it was just for fun and to keep my mind off of other things. Now, I guess it's the same. Art makes me a better person. It takes me into my core and keeps me there for long periods of time. When I'm finished working for the day, I feel more complete, more grounded, more available for the rest of my life. If you've always wanted to paint or write, but don't know where to start, I will encourage you. Stop by my studio and take a look. 1000 Harris, #6, in Historic Fairhaven.
