Featured Artist: Lane and Lucia
"For me, art and queerness go hand in hand. An integral part of both is honoring your authenticity in a really unique way. There is a drive to create, to feel, to challenge. To take something so precious and personal and to share it out into the world- because you have to express it. Being queer & transgender is a beautiful experience that weaves its way through all of my artwork, and I’m so proud to share it."
Westley is an artist who works across multiple mediums. His illustration shop, Lane and Lucia is celebrating a big milestone this summer - it will be turning 10 this July! He lives in the Pacific Northwest with his wife & their dog. When he’s not making art or writing he loves to travel, learn new things & collect cool rocks.

Featured Artist: C Livingston Photography
"I am constantly drawn to the elusive places where color hides itself, as if it were playing a game of hide-and-seek. I have an unrelenting awareness of the ways in which color nestles itself within our world, akin to precious gemstones just waiting to be discovered. Within each of my photographs, color becomes my chosen language, allowing me to elicit a sensory experience that resonates deep within. I yearn for you to feel the embrace of deep green shadows in the pit of your belly, and to feel the tingle of rich golden light in your palms. For me, color is an understated yet profound form of communication, an invisible thread that binds us all. Color is the fuel that drives my creative eye– and lucky me, it’s everywhere!"
