Beggars Table is honored to host two bodies of work by Rebecca Stone: Enchanted Quill and Between All Things.

Artist Statement: Enchanted Quill (digital art) 

Enchanted Quill is a digital art series that takes aspects of our reality and opens the door to what lies beyond. The series explores a whimsical world, filled with magical creatures and people. What happens if a rabbit’s head sits on a woman’s body, or a cloud turns into a dragon? Here, mermaids swim beneath the sea, and foxes have kingdoms deep in the forest. Enchanted Quill is drawn digitally by Rebecca Stone using the IPad app Procreate. This series started with the goal of drawing pieces within a unified style and story, but quickly evolved into a multi-year passion project. Now, it embodies not only digital art, but also print-making and wearables. Rebecca works professionally as a graphic designer, and this series helps her to stay creatively motivated in her day to day. She hopes it adds whimsy to your life, as it has her own. 

Artist Statement: Between all Things (mixed media) 

I believe that all people, creatures and things are inherently connected. Through our Creator, we are unified under the cosmos. If we are all connected, then that means the Creator exists within us, within all things, and between all things. We experience a range of emotions and live distinctly different lives, and among this diversity, we universally feel a messy range of emotions. When we come face to face with something larger than life, we have the potential to feel awestruck or even fearful. For example, when staring down the depths of the Grand Canyon, or looking up to the top of Mount Rainier, we can be at a loss for words in its greatness. Similarly, I feel this level of awe and reverence when in the presence of my Creator. This series of paintings is a visualization of my spiritual journey and meditations. 

My artwork is an attempt at inspiring awe to keep our Creator near.
