What does Luthvarian mean?
As unusual as it sounds, Luthvarian, is an important part of my growth as an artist. As a young reader in my early teens, one of the most influental books I read was Daughter of the Blood by Anne Bishop. It was a book I had no business reading in middle school, but it helped me develop my interest in writing and the arts. Luthvarian is a creative mashup of several characters’ names in honor of a book that shaped my future carreer as a librarian, writer, and fiber artist.
The Fool X The World
In September 2023, we moved to 20 acres near Kansas City. Playfully called The Fool and the World, this new space is outfitted with a fiber and painting workshop, a filming studio, a guest space for visiting teachers, and acreage to experiment with plant fibers. The Fool and the World has allowed us to grow our dream of educating the next generation of artists.
