All in all, its all still the same.

About Me


Hmmmmmmmmm about me well, first of all im a father to a wonderful five year old little girl who I adore in the true sense of the word. She teaches me something new everyday about myself and the world around me and I can only hope that I do the same for her. I love to hear her say daddy. She makes me whole. Moving on because I can talk about her all day. Back to me I can be moody sometimes, I have ups and downs just like everyone else but I dont like to show it. I'm kinda trapped in my own world at times but I stay aware of the outside world. I'm very selective about who I let into my enter circle, but I am very willing to give of myself. I love people and the interactions with them, because I'm always searching for knowledge. I'm an artist and it took me a long time to accpect that about myself. Art in any form is life to me. There's nothing like creating starting from nothing and ending up with a tranlation of your vision. For me that is the ultimate closeness to God to be able to create. When I paint or create I am the most "in spirit" or inspired.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet those born from love: those conceived in their father's tenderness and their mother's orgasm, for they shall be those--numbers of whom will be called "illegitimate", whose spirits shall know no boundaries, even between heaven and earth, and whose eyes shall reveal the spark of the love that was their own creation. They shall know joy equal to their suffering and they will lead multitudes into dancing peace. These are the people i'd like to meet. http://vision2words.com/gallery/shaun-coffman
