Teresa Louis combines poetry that is spare but rich with imagery and fine-line pen-and-ink drawings to create In the Herbary: Herbal Poetry, Recipes & Tips. Sometimes pensive, at other times humorous, In the Herbary takes the reader on a walk through the poet’s herb garden. Louis’ illustrations and writing have also been published in multiple issues of IMPROV: An Anthology of Colorado Poets. In addition, she has written for Xposé, Examiner, Loveland Community Business Journal and The Colorado Writing Newsletter. She is in the process of publishing her first novel and writing a second one.

This stems from his approach to composition and improvisation, where Mittal seeks to create music that relates to his diverse background of both American and East Indian heritage. As a leader, Mittal has self-released three recordings, Possible Beginnings, Videsh, and Thumbs Up EP to rave reviews.
