"Anniversary."
Artist
Alisha Garfinkel-GrossDescription
"Photography found me in high school, and I followed that call all the way to the San Francisco Art Institute. But after college, life pulled me into the fast-moving world of advertising and PR. Slowly, almost without noticing, I stopped creating for myself. In time, I confronted my own workaholism and sought healing at The Bridge to Recovery, tucked away in the woods of Kentucky. Emerging from that experience, something shifted. In October 2025, I shared my work publicly for the first time in thirteen years and the spark returned. I began experimenting again: watercolor, acrylics, charcoal, mixed media, and new ways of merging those with my photography. What I create comes from a quiet place inside a place where seeing becomes feeling. We may stand before the same view or carry the same emotions, yet how we experience them is uniquely our own. These works are my translation of those moments: how they move me, how they speak to me, how they live within me."Try it!
