hello love!

Welcome to my little corner of the world.

My name is Alana Garrigues.

I’m an intuitive artist, lover of land and trees, mama of nearly-grown identical twins, and strong believer in multidisciplinary magic.

Though I live in New England now, I am forever a cedar-loving Oregonian at heart.

Art and writing have healed, shifted, and transformed me in more ways than I can express, and I love to share the beauty of creative process with others.

Beyond this website, I am on Patreon, where you can join Journal for Justice creativity circles with a free membership, or become a patron and collector as a paid member. And I share on Instagram.

I also welcome you to reach out via email at alana@ofloveandlight.org. I am often open to commissions and collaborations, and happy to talk on phone or video call by appointment.

xoxo,

alana
