- ### Christina Nichols

  I have been a professional artist for 40 years, living on Vashon Island in the Pacific Northwest.

  My work is mostly inspired by nature. I also like to mix modern and ancient sources in an attempt to elicit images of the collective unconscious.

  I currently like to use many hand-pulled printing processes, for example—etchings, collagraphs, monoprints and linoleum block prints. I have been a member of Quartermaster Press at Beall Greenhouses since 2011.

- ### Katt Rouse-Riley

  Katt Rouse-Riley hails from Arizona and developed her eclectic tastes from growing up all over the US, finally landing on Vashon Island with her family in 2012. Katt has had the chance to study religions of many forms, becoming what she would recognize to be Wicca 33 years ago. She is a Priestess that has performed marriages and found an affinity to using nature in her practice and art. She has led some Earth Art classes, and looks forward to doing so again.

  Katt will have materials on hand to make your own Brigid's cross!

  Come learn a little bit about Imbolc, the Goddess Brigid, and take home this beautiful symbol crafted by your own hands.

- ### Hope Black

  Hope Black is a conceptual portrait photographer and multi-media artist based on Vashon Island, WA. Her work blends fine-art portraiture with macabre photo editing, and she draws on mixed-media illustrations, varied textures, and found-objects to create portraits and paintings that feel symbolic and dream-like. Her images echo the archetypes found in the tarot and the emotional undercurrents of womanhood -- inviting viewers into a world that is both haunting and deeply human.

  I've been collecting bits and bobs and tiny shiny things for many years. I make small odd little things out of found objects, embellished with things from my collection. This market I will also be offering bathing salts (pre-made or mix your own) in the spirit of Imbolc and spring cleaning.
