I'M HERE TO EMPOWER YOU!

I’m an artist . . . but that’s not saying much, because I believe, and it is something that I have devoted my time heavily to convey, that art expression is an inherent property of human nature. The media may vary, but not the innate disposition.

Those that know me have heard my “talent-as-myth” diatribe all too often, and if you end up tuning in to my posts, you will encounter it soon enough. It is my goal to change the notion, which a great number of people resign to, that one needs to have “talent” to pursue the art they feel or want and am doing this on a daily basis through my program in the G+ Mentorship Program for Photographers.

With that as preface, I will probably devote a portion of my posts to inspiring artists, but I also plan to impart other conceptions that I have about life in general, with the goal of elevating, encouraging, enlivening or energizing those who read them.

Let me begin with this:

I wish for you the ability to create for yourself all that your heart desires.

  10. Brian Grzelewski -- thank you so much, my friend! And you catch the details! I was wondering if anyone would see the orangutan in the tree in the background. By "3", I'm guessing you meant him and the mom and baby chimps? ... did you spy the non-primate in the foreground?

  13. Oh! I didn't see that the Chimp had a baby in her lap, Robin Griggs Wood. I did find the orangutan - Saw the momma chimp and thought that one in the foreground was a primate.  Is that a sloth?

  15. That one in the foreground is just a monkey, Brian Grzelewski, but I wasn't sure if it was visible enough with the web compression ... :o) (it's kind of dark there.) I ended up adding the Ape and her baby because of the "pointer" factor of where they each was looking (momma to the fore elephant and baby to the aft elephant ... but it's hard to see at this small size.)
