Coming soon: 10TH ANNIVERSARY BOOK

Create! Magazine

“Behind every familiar object is a story waiting to be uncovered. In the pages of our 10th Anniversary Book, Diane Phares @dbphares reflects on how quilts, domestic spaces, and family history become powerful vehicles for examining memory, women's labor, and resilience through painting.

Since first appearing in Create! Magazine, Diane has continued to create work that transforms personal narratives into conversations about social equity and the unseen forces that shape everyday life..

"I hope viewers leave my work with a heightened awareness of the quiet, often overlooked forces that shape domestic life—the labor, the care, the repetition, the expectations, and the resilience embedded in the everyday."

Create! Magazine is honored to celebrate a decade of contemporary art by publishing a look back at previously selected artists: their achievements, career growth, and more since being published. Stay tuned for the book launch in fall 2026, and join our newsletter to stay up to date.
