truly inspired

If you have a creative mind and live your life passionately, following the road that it takes you down, you often find yourself meandering through other artists websites to find inspiration. Whether it be a photographer, a painter, a musician and the like, I am often inspired by others stories. I had the opportunity to shoot some photos of Scott Erickson (painter extraordinaire) while I was in DC for the WV Acting on Aids Summit.

Scott started, "The Transpire Project" which is a group of artists who are seeking to bring the making of art – the creative process – into public places. There is something that happens when one experiences art being made. The witnessing of such events communicates to the deepest parts of the heart. It’s an unveiling of that which is unseen. And it’s a wicked cool experience. We desire to translate that which words cannot define. We hope to inspire the human spirit. And we yearn to create authentic and unique experiences.

If you desire to be inspired as you create the medium of art in which you desire to express yourself, take a moment and visit his website - http://transpireproject.wordpress.com/
