I’m Art Inspired

This amazing art deserves a back story.  I once had a job that I loved (but I love what I’m doing more-trust me).  I worked with some of the very best people and I was able to help  kids.  For me, there really wasn’t anything better.  Limiting information, my dad provided a great opportunity for me to help one of these kids, by opening his home to him.  Pretty amazing right?

Last minute, I needed to take this student to his new home.  I wanted everything to be by the book and done right.  Two amazing men decided that they would be willing to volunteer their time and join me on my venture.  I was able to introduce them to my home town and the amazing Capital Reef National Park.

Ofa was one of those men.  He took pictures on our trip then, that my family still talks about.  He sees the world in his own way, and I like being able to view it through his lens.  He inspires me in so many ways-some of his pictures even giving me story ideas.  He took something that he loved and has worked at it until it has become something amazing.

A few of my favorites:

He probably will never push his own work.  He’s too humble for that, but I am so very impressed I will do it for him.  If you want to see some amazing pictures of Salt Lake City-He’s your man.  If you want to view some of the most beautiful shots of nature through a perfected eye-look no further.  He’s impressive. Maybe I am reaching here, but maybe he could even make a picture of me awesome (you know, letting the inside shine through)

Plus, he’s just starting out.  I would love nothing more than to buy so much of his art that I could pay him for every minute of his time that he gave to me, my family, and that kid, but alas, I can’t.  But maybe you can help me.  Check out his page and show him some support.  Good people like him need it!

For my writer friends. I think he could do some pretty amazing graphics for an SFF or Steam Punk Novel cover-wouldn’t you say?
