Maureen Hughes
FEATURED ARTIST (Art On Display)
Dr. Maureen Hughes is a lifetime artist, selling her first work at the age of 13. At the age of 17 she decided to pursue an education in the sciences, rather than going to art school, and at 27 received her doctorate from Washington University in St. Louis in 2003. She started creating beaded jewelry while in grad school. In 2010, she started painting again, starting with the OM symbol which was deeply related to her journey with yoga. She then went through a phase of highly abstract work, characterized by alternative reality landscapes. 2020 brought the pandemic and some other wonders coming out of her mind and onto the canvas. She has created a series of works she calls the "guilded cage". Her art is an extension of emotion, focusing more on color placement with her abstract works.

Featured Poem by Poet MCKAYLEY HOPKINS “SILENT SIREN”
“Janedo”
She’s twenty-something
Trying to find her name, trying to get a sense of heaven when her mind is running through the flames
Keeps a smile on her face but yet worried about the next bill to be paid
College book in her face but her mind is in a daze In the sky
Wondering what she's truly there for and asking
God why? Is this what I really want to do?
When's my time to fly?
Got some insecurities but still puts on the face of a queen
Wake up every day chasing a ghost called a dream
Yet still post on social media, pretending that things aren't what they seem
Daddy left scars she can’t heal away
So she soaks in the love of men that are never bound to stay
The drugs, the sex, and the partying kept a smile on her face
Sin on a saturday all so she can go to church and repent the next day
College halls filled with echos of doubt
She's continuously living asking, “what's life all about”?
Is she meant to have a purpose more than the emotional scars she shows?
Or will she be stuck in the abyss of, nobody knows?
But due to her faith, she believes
That there is nobody greater than him that is in me
Janedo isn’t a lost soul but a soul being grown
A soul stuck in the maze of becoming her own
