Christina Voytko, a Northern California–based mixed-media artist, transforms cyanotypes, watercolor, and ink into luminous reflections on nature, folklore, and the subtle magic of everyday life. Her Winter Solstice series celebrates the quiet threshold of the season, inviting viewers to pause, notice, and reconnect with the enduring cycles of light and growth.

In AQ Volume VII, artist Heidi Keith presents ink-based works that explore the body as a shifting, porous form shaped by time, environment, and lived experience. Through flowing marks and dissolving figures, her paintings reflect cycles of transformation, vulnerability, and collective connection, offering a meditative reflection on becoming rather than being.

Anne Spalter, a pioneering visual artist in both traditional and digital media, presents immersive, symbolic landscapes in the upcoming Spirit World exhibition. Her work blends surrealism, science fiction, and archetypal imagery to explore the boundaries between the natural and the cosmic. Through her series Surrealist Landscapes and Future Landscapes, Spalter merges dreamlike geometry, luminous color, and algorithmic processes to create worlds where inner and outer realities converge. Featured internationally in major collections and publications, her practice invites viewers to encounter transformation, intuition, and the mythic dimensions of contemporary experience.
