Connie Bickman is a multi-media artist who is always creating something new in her studio. Her art is sold under the name of THE KHANI COLLECTION featuring one-of-a-kind art. After exploring many art mediums, Connie's current favorite is working with paper - making collage art, junk journals, layered treasure cards and journal treasure boxes. Her DOLLZ COLLECTION, made from recycled bits combined with fabric, paper and unexpected objects, features feminine faces, along with uplifting quotes to inspire women and girls. Connie mixes her love of paper with another favorite - fiber arts. Her wool needle-felted paintings and characters can be found in galleries and have become popular in several states.

When Connie isn’t making art, she is writing. She publishes her work, and also contracts for others, under YATRA PUBLICATIONS. She is the author of “The Touchstone Diary” series, “Jungle Moon,” “Dances with Words,” and several other books (available under Touchstone Diary/Buy Books on menu bar).  She is currently working on book three of the Touchstone series and a book, “In the Shadow of Shamanism,” highlighting her experiences with shaman, bush doctors, and healers around the world.

Now retired, she comes from a background in newspaper as an editor, publisher, photographer, writer and graphic designer, and enjoyed a 25-year career traveling around the world as a photojournalist, mostly to 3rd world countries (see bio page on menu) 

Connie says she is living her best life at retirement by making art - every day. However, she adds that most of all, she enjoys spending time with her children and grandchildren in Arizona, Minnesota, New York and Costa Rica.
