Meikel Church’s first memories of the art of collage are not fond ones. “I remembered it from elementary and middle school, and I hated it,” he says with a laugh. The Conway native stumbled into the craft again in 2013 and this time, something stuck. He felt drawn to the process of using old magazine clippings and photographs to make something new. “My grandmother was a storyteller,” he says. “I like writing and telling stories, and I’ve tried to adapt that into the narrative of my visual art pieces.”

Nestled high in the treetops above the Arkansas River, a contemporary gem glitters with 80 feet of continuous glass windows.

Escape to your backyard for an easy-to-recreate autumn scene

Walk down the wooded pathway to Charlie Gropetti and Todd Smith’s backyard escape and you’ll likely feel as though you are miles into an Arkansas forest. “The idea was to feel far out but not actually be far from the house,” Charlie says. As the owners and creative minds behind national home décor brand Porch View Home, busy schedules often leave them with little time for lengthy vacations, making this at-home retreat even more alluring.
