Bea Colon - https://instagram.com/tlc.artist Bea submitted one of our favorite pieces from this edition -- "EUPHORIA" -- which was inspired by Bernini's The Ecstasy of St. Teresa.

We learn they also perform drag as Ava ridge hyte @ Why Kiki bar in SLC, see them live or book for your own shindig: https://www.instagram.com/theaava_ridge_hyte/ Elliot -  https://www.instagram.com/gamerartkid_/ Elliot introduces us to a technique called Anaglyph that he used for the cover art of LQ issue 3 (put on your 3D glasses for extra fun.)  He joins us to discuss his interpretation of trans identity and its expression in his art.
