Garibaldi+Art+music=Inspiration

hiddenyou — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 23:11:22 +0000

Art is powerful, free flowing and from the heart. It can send a powerful message if you open your eyes and your mind.

I stumbled upon this artist David Garibaldi, he is crafty and free flowing with his paintbrush. He tries to share his art all over the world. To bring people together of every race and language. With his art you do not need to speak the language to know what it means.

His work is very inspiring. Check him out and be inspired to create! http://garibaldiarts.com/

All the best,

Girl throws puppies in the river

hiddenyou — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 02:30:37 +0000

This morning while on the public transit, this photo was on the front page. It was about a girl who was throwing puppies into a river. I watched the video and was just shocked at her actions. The poor little pups were crying and she just laughed and tossed.

How do you feel about this? Do you think the world is taking this to seriously? Are we giving animals more rights then they should have? Let me know what you think.

Here is a link to the video. (caution: animal cruelty)

Obsessed with Color?

hiddenyou — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 16:09:15 +0000

So a month or so ago, I stumbled upon (on the Internet) a hotel in Brussels called, Pantone Hotel. Its’s every graphic designer and interior designers dream place to go to. Each room is designed with the colors from the pantone color wheel, and a little legend is on the side of the wall to let you know the colors used in the room.

Its has that very sleek, minimalist look to it, as with many european hotels. This hotel comes with Free Wi-fi, Flat screen TV, meeting/conference room.

Whenever I have the opportunity to again travel to Europe, I would love to go to Brussels and stay a night or two at this Hotel to be inspired and dream in color.

Here is the website: http://www.pantonehotel.com/en/home

How many of us remember our 21st b-day (who have already celebrated one)? Was is it the best night of your life? Do you regret it?

My 21st b-day, I worked…a closing shift at that. But I got to celebrate it with my friends and enjoy a nasty drink, which I have never ordered again. Very low key and spent with my closets friends.

Do you wish that you could have spent your 21st b-day enjoying it for 21 days doing someone amazing things? Well one wonderful young woman I know did. You might remember her from the Artist of the week on here or showcased in the first issue of HiddenYou e-zine. Her name is Nikki Yeager, and she is doing “21 days of my 21st”.

Here is just a snip-it of what she has in store for herself…

Learn to skateboard
Skeet shooting
Learn to surf.
Jetski.
Skydive.
Brazillian Wax.
Try Kambucha and Aloe tea.
Ride in a helicopter.
Be on tv.
Fly a plane.

Please go to her website http://www.nikkiyeager.com/apps/blog/ and read about her adventures and check out the videos. Hey if you want to help her out with some of her goals leave her some love on her page.
