Years In The Making

What does living the M.A.D. lifestyle mean? I’ve spent some time thinking about this and the one thought that came to mind is the sticker hanging in my office which reads “Sorry I’m awkward, sorry.” That shiny silver sticker makes me laugh constantly because I want to say it to someone I run across daily.

I am a middle school counselor, it should make perfect sense. Obviously I am an artist too. I was sitting in a Hay House lecture one day a few years back (you know, searching for the meaning of life) when the speaker said “Creative energy is healing energy!” In that moment it had not occurred to me that I could heal through art. I am a servant to Mother Earth and her inhabitants and my life has served a meaningful purpose as a counselor. However, when challenged with the idea of my true purpose being what makes my heart skip a beat, I know it involves art.

This endeavor terrifies me…challenge accepted! The Modern Ancient Design logo embodies duality which blend to create perfect harmony. I know there is strength in difference! (I can’t separate the counselor in me).

Here is the start to my next shirt design.
