For work (which feels more like play) I create imagery which sings to the soul and inspires action, bringing your vision to life and attracting your ideal clients to you.

The inspired action shows up like this:

• Visitors feel compelled to contact you after coming across your web site because what they find on your pages speaks to them, gives them a sense of your personality and fully reflects the essence of the wonderful work you do.
• People are drawn to stick around and read what you have to say when what they see first, the visuals, are engaging, attractive and in alignment with your message.
• Prospective clients are motivated to book your services when your work is given credibility via the polished, professional image your logo presents.
• Readers are inspired to purchase your book when the cover and content back one another up and present a strong, cohesive, positive message and spirit.

I design logos, web sites, videos, CD and book covers.

Many of my clients are life coaches and healers so I find myself in a continual state of discovery … amazed and inspired by the wealth of wonderful tools available at our fingertips to create a rich and delicious life.

Here at Life by Muse, I love sharing the things I’m discovering along my journey … insights, tips and tricks … always with a wink and a smile.

Someone once told me, “You are a beautiful gift to this world.” And I pass that along to YOU.

YOU are a beautiful gift to this world.
Remember that always!

While I’m at it, let me tell you the story of my inspiration, Anna, and my jewelry. Anna is the little 7 year old girl I worked with for three years and Anna has autism. She is just this bright light, I can’t even begin to explain it to you.

And each little step I see her take in life is like this amazing, joyous celebration … She conquers one little thing and it’s like I just won the lottery or something. She impresses me every day with what she’s capable of.

My ex-boyfriend’s nephew also has autism and knowing him was what prompted me to begin learning about it in order to find out how I could communicate with him. At the time, I had never even heard the word “autism” before. I only knew that he didn’t speak but when I walked around the pool holding him and singing to him, he would burst out into spontaneous language when I’d never heard a peep from him before. I would always try to reach him and when I heard about the opportunity to take a class on autism I just jumped at it.

But that’s a long story. I could talk forever about these kids, I really love them.

If you know someone who works with a special needs child, hug them and thank them because the pay can be pretty pitiful! Not complaining but wow!

I’ve been in the business of creativity for 19 years and counting. Anna has infiltrated all of my life so you now see her influence coming out in my creative endeavors too. Like the “I Love Someone with Autism” name bracelets I make for AnnaRoseJewelry.com (name sound familiar? … and the fact that I give 20% of the profits from all the jewelry I make to programs which promote understanding and interaction for children with autism.

When not working with her, I was trying to figure out what game would help another child to connect with her or drawing PECs for her or looking up books which would help explain autism to other kids. Helping her and other children with autism became a big piece of my mission in life. I’m interested in developing a program where typically developing children interact with children with autism in a controlled environment … a FUN, yet controlled environment

I’ve witnessed so often that the other kids really do want to get to know the children with autism and once they’re taught HOW, they do step up to the plate. It’s beautiful. I really believe that if we seize the opportunites which their willingness and their open hearts allow, we can go far and really witness some miracles.

Much love,
Col
