As a sculptor by passion and industrial designer by career path_ I am always learning. For me, this is a kind of mantra and actual quote by Michelangelo. The critical synthesis of art and design continues to fascinate and engage all of the senses of my heart and soul. Inspiration fuels our imaginations. We are only limited by our ability to focus, learn, and take action to achieve any goal given the ongoing evolution of advances in every field. The world is truly our oyster, if we are blessed with access to its evolving knowledge and truly grasp how to harness the magic. I stay awestruck and feel a deep responsibility to pay all blessings forward.

As a baby boomer, I will reach my 100th birthday in 2050. This year 2017 finds me reinventing myself_once again _like Joseph Campbell's hero of a thousand faces. Temporarily retired, I now have an opportunity to study and learn Tinkercad and Blender open apps on a basic generic laptop. Topics of 3D printing, the light and magic of animation, and special effects were discussed with excitement about the future throughout my career. Today, the future is NOW. A deep measure of gratitude is felt that I am still here to expand my understanding and learn new skill sets.

Special thanks to the creators and staff of MyMiniFactory. I was inspired by Linda Hollander, TheWealthyBagLady, to create my own marketing brand way back in 2003 based on a deep desire to teach anyone how to wake up, listen to, and take care of your creative genius. I call this genius_YourIncredibleLiteBulbFactory. Remember: Angels can fly because they have learned to take themselves litely. So can you, and so have I. I remain a kid in a candy store awestruck by all the different flavors and possibilities.

So let's get busy like the mythical Lakota Native American Spider: Create, create, create!!!
