Passport to Life

First Post ... I admit I am a little anxious and very excited.  With some encouragement from my sister, I will share a few contents of my head with specific attention to traveling, art and life.  I also want to acknowledge a few things that truly inspire me day-to-day.

What I want:

• To communicate my passions
• To create the possibility of global travel
• To share my artwork
• To inspire others

Favorite Travel Journalists/Episodes:

• Samantha Brown (Inside Suitcase 2010)
• Anthony Bourdain/No Reservations (Rome, 2010)
• Dhani Tackles the Globe (Senegal 2010)
• Three Sheets, Zane Lamprey (Iceland 2010)
• Rick Steve's (Germany, Austria and Switzerland 2010)
• Burt Wolf/Travels and Traditions (Rhine River 2010)
• Rudy Maxa Smart Travels (London 2009)

Inspirational Artists:

• Salvador Dali
• Olafur Eliasson (Take Your Time MCA 2009)
• Dan Flavin (A Retrospective MCA 2005)
• Jeff Koons
• La Monte Young & Marian Zazeela (sons & lumineres Centre Pompidou 2004)
• Pierre Huyghe (sons & lumineres Centre Pompidou 2004)
• Joseph Beuys (sons & lumineres Centre Pompidou 2004)

As an artist, I love sharing what inspires me; as an art therapist, I inspire creativity in others.  I currently work with children/adolescence with developmental disabilities, specifically autism, addressing their emotional, social or physical needs. 

I look forward to sharing my thoughts with whatever audience I gain and will claim only to be an expert on my life and personal experiences ... Enjoy and Welcome to my Journey!
