Less Fear, More Optimism - The Art of Creative Manifestation (en)

Stuart Sheldon “Stuart Sheldon created one of the billboards, an
American flag posing spiralized questions about freedom. To
him, it’s about urging people “at a granular level” to start over,
with less fear and more optimism.”       Los
Angeles Times At 36, divorced and desperate, I simply wanted a
loving family, a wife and child to share my future. I had neither.
So, with nowhere else to turn, I began to draw the outline of the
woman I saw in my mind's eye, arms raised, sexy, triumphant. For
two years, I painted this silhouette, creating a total of 35
tableaus, each a call out to the universe. Soon after I finished
the last work, I met someone. She was smart, confident, silly and
gorgeous. And most amazingly of all, she looked just like the
figure in the paintings. That silhouette is now my wife and
the mother of our two beautiful children. And my art career is
thriving like never before. Given the absolute mess that our
so-called civilization finds itself in, the dominant intention of
my creative work is no longer focused inward, onto myself, but
outward, onto society, where I wish to catalyze human connection
and bridge building. Join me as we explore the actions you can
take to make the world better and YOUR dreams real.
