psaligraphy artist: Karen Bit Vejle

The Nordic Heritage Museum in Seattle had a wonderful exhibition by psaligraphy artist Karen Bit Vejle.  Psaligraphy literally means the art of drawing or painting with scissors.  Her storytelling behind each piece is as inspiring as the art itself.  The exhibit was amazing!
