Fantasies and Art Forms
What is art? For myself personally I love the many forms of art. From music, to paintings, authors and poets to name a few. A lot of people have asked me in the past about hair and some of my previous work…hair is an unusual art form for many…anything that can be sculpted, and reshaped…

"Though Karin and I were connected through a previous web marketing organization in the past, I didn't know her story or journey of sexual abuse until recently.From my recollection, Karin was always eager with excitement to learn the cutting-edge strategies as presented at the same conferences I was speaking at. We hit it off and kept in touch over the years.
When I reconnected with her, it was like we didn't skip a beat.
Karin shared a bit of her story with me, and was trusting to let me read her manuscript of a book she's writing about her story and journey to shed light on the topic of domestic violence and sexual abuse, a topic that definitely needs more awareness and press.
Shocked, appalled and sickened were emotions that flooded my mind and body as I read her manuscript - it's saddening to know many more are affected by this dilemma but feel they don't have a voice in the matter.
It's a miracle Karin's alive to tell her story today, and I'm honored to know her - a woman of creativity, talent, fighting spirit and power.
It was a no-brainer when Karin asked me to recreate an extreme makeover of her site from her Blogger blog to a new and improved platform so she can share her voice and be taken seriously as a writer, a woman who has overcome her past, and delivering hope to those in the darkness of this tragedy.
When Karin's book is published, I urge you to buy it, read it, and pay it forward - someone's life - through six degrees of separation - may be saved by your gesture."
