Jason Mecier isn’t your ordinary artist. Instead of paints, pencils, or charcoal, he works with trash. Literal trash. He collects trash and discarded items from celebrities, then uses it to create a portrait. The one above, of Lady Gaga, is one of my favorites.

One of my favorite bands of all-time is The Rolling Stones. The music, the showmanship, the lyrics, the timeless songs – there’s nothing about this band I don’t love madly. Fellow fanatics, enjoy the Rolling Stones posters and videos. If you aren’t a fanatic, pay closer attention. You’ll get there.

I’d love to link to an article written by the very talented and courageous Rick Allen, drummer for one of my personal all-time favorite bands, Def Leppard. Rick Allen wrote the article for Guideposts magazine.
After losing his arm in a car crash the USO contacted Rick to speak to wounded soldiers. Rick went on to volunteer with the Wounded Warrior Project, a group dedicated to helping injured veterans heal both physically and mentally. Rick leads Drum Circles, a rhythm-based group therapy and uses his experience to inspire wounded soldiers.
“From my own experience, I’ve learned that the human spirit needs only a spark to be reignited after a loss. Helping to find that spark for these soldiers has been one of the greatest honors of my life.” – Rick Allen
Read the wonderful article HERE. Read it and pass the link around – it’s encouraging for everyone!
