I stumbled over this inspiring TED-Talk by Mick Ebeling. He built an amazing team to make it possible for the from head to toe paralyzed graffiti artist TEMPT1 to draw again.

Amazing ! Mick Ebeling founded Not Impossible Labs, a nonprofit that develops creative solutions to real-world problems.

I saw this TED talk by Shane Koyczan. I think it is amazing. Shane Koyczan makes spoken-word poetry and music. This video is powerful and touching!
From “To This Day”
“…and if you can’t see anything beautiful about yourself
get a better mirror
look a little closer
stare a little longer
because there’s something inside you
that made you keep trying
despite everyone who told you to quit…”

And he said something else on his website which I loved so much that it inspired me to this art journal page.
So true!
Thank you Shane for this amazing inspiration and for being such an enrichment and encouragement to other people’s life through your art!
Have a wonderful day!
huge hugs

TFS…I needed THAT message today! Love the page…but…it’s the quote that really grabs me <3
I continue to love the TED videos that you post Nat. The woman on this page just grabs me. Maybe I can relate to her doing the dishes. Wonderful and different from what you usually share with your fans.
I just listened to his ted talk… It is very good… Your art is beautiful!
How I love your page, the colours, the building and what inspired you. Thanks for the link to the talk. I came upon TED two years ago and was so pleased I did; they have such great talks by amazing people.

Wow. Just wonderful and the fact that they did not make money from it is stunning.
It was done for the love of the man and his art.
