Niyitanga Olivier brings us couture design by way of Rwanda. His art has already garnered local awards, and he’s certainly guaranteed to earn more. He’s also started a digital fashion line to keep up productivity during the pandemic.
We also check back in with Watercolor Batik artist, Belle Heppard. She guides us through all the tools we will need to create our very own masterpiece. Be sure to go to artdictionmagazine.com to view an exclusive vide where Belle demonstrates this artform.
As we inch closer towards the end of the year, continue to be diligent in your efforts to stay safe and healthy. Pandemic fatigue is real! But we will get through it. See you next year!
