This beautiful book showcases artwork produced by people across the globe from their bedrooms and kitchens as part of online art classes during lockdown in 2020, during 65 unique classes, with over 20,000 registrations. Humans have an innate attraction to order and symmetry. We can all relate to patterns, tracing them in our movements, habits, and rituals and the natural world around us. These patterns are all interconnected and manifest everywhere in seen and unseen realms. Working with these forms offers a tangible connection with a Divine source, and the gradual process of building them is an elevating and profound experience.

"The discipline [of drawing geometry and biomorphs] is captivating and worthy of the utmost respect. The connections to the infinite, the fractals, the nature, the micro- and macrocosmic parallels, the multiple simultaneous interpretations all add together to make this art a beautiful spiritual adventure. We never know how our interconnectedness will weave through others' lives and then back to our own." Tara Cady Sartorius, Alabama, USA
