This one is a shout out to all of our Oklahoma peeps! For those of you that don't know this, Chris was born and raised in Tulsa, OK. He's a "good ole' oklahoma boy" as they say ;). I grew up in Chicago, but moved to Oklahoma for college which is where I met Chris. We were recently interviewed by Okie Creative, which is a really neat site dedicated to bringing creative minds across Oklahoma together to share resources and gain inspiration. I loved the mission behind what Jeremy Charles is trying to do there. Really exciting stuff.
We all are a product of our journey and Oklahoma is part of ours. Some amazing musicians and artists have come out of Oklahoma, ie. Flaming Lips, Other Lives and others. We are huge fans of the creative community there; rather, we're huge fans of building a community wherever you are! People are what make the world go round. Wherever we are, we should become part of a creative community. And if you think one doesn't exist in your area... Start it! No great movement has ever happened without someone stepping out, seeing a need and taking a risk. I just got an e mail from a blog reader of ours, Becka Knight, who is doing exactly this with a new project she has in the works... high fives to you Becka! I don't know where we would be without our creative community... the people who push us to be better (each of you who reads our blog included in that statement).
