Finally! We are seeing “IT!” This whole NEW PERSPECTIVE. This amazing and beautiful perspective from a population previously not seen. Well, let the UNVEILING Continue! The unveiling that has been happening on a daily basis on our favorite fb page. ARTISTS and AUTISM!! This is my 3rd highlight blog. Each week, heck each day we are seeing such creativity!! Such a wide range of talent gracing the pages at every turn. If you need up-lifting…turn on your computer and take a gander!! Like this amazing photo of a boy with a mind like an engineer. Always building and creating! Shannon Polachek Behric’s photo of her son Dylan is stunning.
Here is another example of a beautiful photo a Mother took of some awesome ingenuity! Donna Mitchell’s 12 yr. old aspie son Keifer creates TOYS with discarded objects. What a perfect intellect! A “GREEN~INVENTOR! So~ the way of the future!! BRAVO Keifer…EXCELLENT WORK!! Such, JOY…BEAUTY…TALENT and…FUN!! It is very uplifting to see the inspiration growing. It is undeniably evident! Perhaps… an artist had stopped painting. After a work from an earlier time is posted, viewed and commented on…the ARTIST is re- inspired and re-fueled to create ANEW! I have seen this not once but, many, many times!! QUITE AMAZING! It has been phenomenal to have been involved in such an inspiring venture! Thank you, Jeffrey and Kara Kellen for this privilege ! I am honored to be a moderator in such an amazing environment! If you’ve experienced this page you know! If not …I’ll say it again> Hop on this BANDWAGON!!

Also PLEASE suggest it to your ALL of your friends because, everyone is affected by ART & AUTISM…when you get right down to it!! So on this Blog featuring “Artists & Autism” I am FOCUSING on Photography!! Look at this stunning Sunflower and this cool cat. Seemingly ordinary objects brought to life by an astute FOCUS!! Cool Cat…Tucker snapped by his owner Annette Stanton Harkness & this beautiful Sunflower spotted and captured by Jupiter Bennett! Images that BRIGHTEN OUR DAYS!!
We have been told that people on the SPECTRUM pay attention to visual details. That is quite evident here!! These photos taken by individuals with AUTISM ~or individuals affected by it, on a daily basis. Show great insights into life. SPECTRUM Perspectives that have not been showcased. Until NOW!! More and MORE the word is spreading that there is a NEW VIEW On things “out there. ” An ASD SPIN “if you will” on the arts! A pure un-affected creative perspective.
View these photos and VIDEO realizing that these artists are extremely viable to the tapestry of our lives. That artists come in all shapes, sizes and INTELLECTS! That artists are NOT…ONLY “Neuro-Typical”!! If they were…I fear our lives would be nowhere near AS BRILLIANT!!
Please view CRAIG THOMSON’S video here
His UNDENIABLE words of honesty accompanying his amazing photography SO ROCKS!! He shows you AND tells you with his UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE the way of the future! Which NEEDS TO INCLUDE understanding our ASD Population. UNDERSTAND that they have talents ,that they are employable. and that we will ALL NEED TO work toward making that the reality!!
