Featured Artist: Katrina Morse
Exploring water: In my water series I've depicted how one touch on the surface of water ripples out, like one act of kindness can ripple out into more kindnesses. And how being in water can make us feel like we are one with water. Water is life. Storms and rain bring cleansing and growth and an opportunity to start fresh.
