An article I wrote for my Hawaii artists album, Perfect Strangahz
It was published in the Streetz magazine
Fingers on a keyboard type, Joslyn Noelani but who is that? What makes the person behind the keyboard ever so curious to find about me. Might it be I have all the answers to all your questions, probably not. Is it possible I have the secret on how to make a million bucks? That might be true, but probably not as quickly as you'd hope. What possesses them to know about me? Could it be that magnetic characteristic of mine.......passion.
When a search is done and people see my name anything tied to me will disclose a person passionate about life and everything in it. It will be displayed by the love of poetry, writing, hip-hop, beats, graffiti, graphic designing, film photography, conceptualized designs, customized designs, the list goes on. I am a person of deep thought so anything I have created is of deep thought...whoa that's deep, hahaha.
What I want them to see is someone who grew up not believing in themselves, and through trial and error stood the test of time to understand the value of who they are today. My goal is to position myself within the social media, and internet world, where my skills will be in high-demand. My business will be a company that can cover all bases, graphic design, silk screen services, branding, social media, web design, writing, you name it, it can be done.
I have a knack for conceptualizing ideas, I am a creative graphic designer who longs to display anyone, anything in a way it has never been displayed before. Another expertise is writing, whether through life experience's or writing in general it will always be in a provocative style that intrigues the reader. Third expertise is overall being a creative person who loves to create.
We all are creative creatures even if we do not know it, deep within us we as human beings have a desire to create. What we create shows the world who we are, so why don't we create art, or music of quality. Not only of quality but art, music of substance, thru substance we can deliver a message. Whether the message be of hope, love, passion, peace, struggle, or fortune it is the lasting emotion it leaves that can change the heart of people. And, when our creations can change the hearts of the people we can change the world. Let us start today.

Ho Joslyn,
ReplyDeleteHow can you position yourself online in a way where your skills will be in high-demand?
Thanks,
Greg
Good question, to position oneself online to be in high-demand is to put things of value out. When people read, see, and like what you create one is well on there way to positioning themself.
DeleteI really like your position statement, especially the part that says "even if we do not know it." I feel like a lot of people think they are not creative, just because maybe they can't draw or paint, when that's not true. So many ways to think creatively in our daily lives that we don't even realize we are doing it!
ReplyDeleteAloha Renee,
ReplyDeleteMahalo for those jewels of wisdom greatly appreciated. I feel if its too easy its not worth it, when things are hard to understand or believe, or achieve that's when its all worth the while.
