I celebrate you every line gone crossed and all the eyes that get their dots I celebrate you every page post it and drawing letter jots I celebrate you every plot planted and roots grounded and bent I celebrate you every watch unlost and time well spent

I update my Exhibition Page with events and galleries Lorna Alkana Art is featured in.
Check out the Disclosure Page to see a chronological evolution of my blog and art.
I post twice a week in two sorts of ways: I share new art/discussions about the process of works in progress, and I post segments with Comic Lorna in my audiobio comic series called, Affect.
