Each Saturday I focus on a different artist that I admire. From potters to painters, chefs to collectors, seamstress to songwriters, lifestyle to lovers… anyone who set the paintbrush, pastry brush, hands and heart on fire to create.

Those who inspire art to flow where it may.

When I was in California in December my cousin, sister in law and I went out for dinner in Chico. While there we saw a young woman wearing a wonderful large and interesting scarf.

We asked about it and found out that the scarf was made by KOMPASSIONKNIT, a non profit organzation creating handmade scarves to help fight against human trafficking.
