She likes to be held this way! No, really!
My name is Alix North; I’m a mixed media artist from the San Francisco Bay Area. I’m also a writer, personal coach, educator, techno-geek, and a whole lot of other things. What matters here is that I have a endless enthusiasm for the transformative power of art. That enthusiasm fires my passion to find all the ways in which we block ourselves from this power and develop creative ways we can wiggle free.
I hope this site serves as one more reminder that you are meant to bring your creative force to life. I know it is a dance between the light and the shadows; all I ask is that you remember to dance back into the light, where you belong. People are waiting to see what you create next!
Acknowledgments for this Site:
This WordPress site was developed on the Theme Hybrid framework. It runs on Laughing Squid’s excellent cloud hosting.
All graphics were created by Alix North, using a mix of watercolors, acrylic paint, Adobe Illustrator, and Photoshop. Exceptions are:
- The paint splatter was created by the amazing Jay Hilgert from BittBox and is included in his splatter brush preset (monochrome).
- The bird I used in the Twitter animated icon is from DryIcons, via Smashing Magazine.
The font in the title is Cooper. The tape in the sidebar titles is Japanese washi tape.
