Every artist has a story behind what they create.

For featured artist Stacy Hsu (.hsu.art), that story begins with a childhood in Taiwan, where days spent outdoors surrounded by trees, gardens, and wildlife fostered a lasting connection to nature. Years later, after a career in design, she brings that same sense of observation into her artwork, combining thoughtful composition with quiet moments of wonder.

In this Artist Spotlight, Stacy shares how growing up close to nature continues to shape the way she sees the world and the art she creates today.

Her featured exhibition, Mingling Spirits, is on view at Columbia City Gallery through July 12. Stop by to experience these intricate graphite and hand-stitched works in person.
