To deepen your experience, you may join us our optional monthly Open Studio Session with renowned manuscript artist Risa Gettler, where participants share their progress, ask questions, and explore color mixing, technique, and community together.
Knot Forgotten celebrates the beauty of interlaced design — art and history, bound in every stroke.
