I get most of my supplies second hand from thrift stores, or from my late grandmothers, whose sewing boxes always give me new surprises!

Evelyn Hobbs – Evelyn Hobbs makes two kinds of embroidered art: bondage and geeky stuff. Both are mediums she uses to explore gender, sexuality, and life in general, but only one of them is something she works on while in class. Can you guess which?”
Elyse Miyake
Elyse Miyake is a student artist who specializes in multiple mediums, including watercolor, acrylic, oil, pastel, digital, and pen and ink. Creating works in a semi-realistic style, Elyse enjoys creating personal works that uncover topics of identity, sexuality, and mental health. When she isn’t making art, she’s making more art, drawing and painting portraits and self-portraits. Her greatest hope is that you can connect to her works in many ways and gain greater perspectives through them. Elyse is currently a junior at Western Washington University double majoring in Creative Writing and Art Studio.
