Denise Alvarado

    An independent scholar and ritual artist, this author delves into the folk magic, spiritual traditions, and culture of the American South. Her work intimately weaves together her art and life experiences as a Creole woman raised in the Hoodoo capital of the world, New Orleans. While deeply rooted in her heritage, her global travels have broadened her perspective, now calling Arizona home. Through her writings and art, she offers a unique lens into spiritual practices and folklore.
