Wise Woman Wednesdays: Tonina

Cher, Rihanna, Beyonce…Like some of the most iconic musical voices before her, Tonina is best known by her first name only, because she needs no further introduction.

Wise Woman Wednesdays: Ida Floreak

New Orleans artist Ida Floreak's paintings are immediately striking— the subject matter is usually small in scale, centering on just-this-side of commonplace items that lend the work an intimate feel. Discarded insects, crystals, and leaves all make their way onto the canvas in stunning detail, giving the impression that one has just opened a drawer full of spell-casting ingredients or stumbled across the contents of a child's treasure box.
