Artists in other mediums
Some of my favorite area handcrafted artisans... in mediums ranging from soaps and lotions, hand-painted gourds, wood carvings and felt work, to the artistry of dance, music, photography and even healing arts, a great place to stay and work on your art, and the art of making other people beautiful!
