I am a divorced woman, raised in the television industry in L.A.. I've always played a little piano and a little guitar, not enough to do much w/it; however I do have a talent for writing. Writing anything. Songs, letters etc. I have recently written a "country" type song and I have trouble putting the music to the lyrics, so this could b a match we both need. I would want to share any rights to the song as the writer of the lyrics. I'm already working on a patent for my music. Let me know if any of this sounds like we might be able to work together. (I'm also pretty good w/ 16 yr olds, my daughter is now 28 and a new mom)! My resume has nothing of music on it. Music has been a hobby for me. My resume is available upon request.

Hi my name is David, I am the CEO and founder of a multitude of growing companies. Everyone who is involved in this beginning have there own, complementary company of there own, with all of there skills, triumphs and failures, all documented, for the world to see. T-Shirts, Drawings, sculpture's albums, mix cd's exhibits, merchandise, online shows, and much much more. Our aim is to set an example of what it means that every person has something that there meant for, and most people have more than one talent that they can showcase. We also agree that it is better to collaborate then to combat. Think about it if one person has a good Idea, why shouldn't that individual share that with the next, who can extend that idea to its next level, to propel the human race in it's self instead of holding it back. I myself am also a spiritual advisor, and teacher of self advancement. Helping everyone understand what life is all about, is what its all about. Knowledge should not be held secret, but should be given to everyone.

I am a trained painter and illustrator. My specialties are animals, birds and the natural world. My preferred medium for painting is acrylic paint; for illustration, I generally use pen, ink and wash. I have been commissioned to create diverse works, from very small ink drawings and logos to a 4'x40' mural. I have recently added stained glass panel design and creation to my skill set and I am energized by the experience and outcome. I thoroughly enjoy my work and consider myself very lucky to be able to use my creativity every day to create my own windows into the world around us.
