Artist Emily Turner
The power of "intention" is a concept that has found a special and magical connection to many hearts on the ultimate spiritual journey. I invite you to come share my experience with this concept, and view my interpretation of how to utilize this powerful tool in my favorite form of meditational art: Crochet. On display will be a series of mandala-like crocheted creations of all sizes and colors, in which I infused each stitch with a particular intention, while linking the healing energies of color with the powerful meanings behind numerology and the natural calming beauty of symmetrical designs.
